    hello all

    i had a deal couple of hours ago with user named randan at namepros chat. i have sold him 4 domain names for the sum of 170$


    pkpp.net
    wsww.net
    pussypink.net
    ntoy.net

    he payed me by paypal and i pushed the domains to him at dynadot.

    hour after i pushed the domains i looked at my paypal account and have seen that this money is on hold for unauthorised transfer


    i talked to a user named widedesigns and he told me that he got scammed by that user in the same time i did

    beware of that randan scammer
    if u see those domains somwhere please inform me thanks

    his paypal name is:
    Francis Camarota


    beware of that scammer


    thanks

    That sucks for you. Next time better sell domains through services like Sedo or Monikker.

    Doesn’t dynadot allow you to cancel the transfer? I think Godaddy allows this for a few days.

    Contact Dynadot immediately. Recently there has been a similar situation and they helped the seller.

    write an email to your registrar to stop the transfer if it hasn't completed.

    That's frustrating. But you always have to be careful with Paypal, can get a little tricky if you are the seller and you are not familair with the buyer.

    you can cancel the push within a day. contact your provider.
    they are helpful in such cases.
    take print screens and anything that will substantiate your story.

    Yes, contact your host and cancel the push, don't let the scammer get away with it.
    Best of luck with getting them back.

    More often than not Paypal will not help out with this sort of thing because the things traded are not "tangible". Sorry to hear about your domains by the way
