I have had two domains that I have been contacted on by two different people with the same exact email (below). Are they trying to scam me or what is going on? ---------------------------------------- Can you accept 12,000 USD? Do you sell domain with a web site or just the name? Domain without content is ok with me. Web site is not necessary. Have you had your domain names evaluated in the past? I mean domain appraisals. Without valuation we cannot be sure in the sale price. It's very important for me in terms of reselling too. But we must engage a valuation company with REAL manual service. So I will only accept valuations from independent sources I trust. To avoid mistakes I asked domain experts about reputable appraisal companies. Please check this posting from archive: http://domaintalk.007sites.com/Archive/260108.htm If, for example, the valuation comes higher you can adjust your asking price accordingly. It will be fair. I also hope you can give me 12% - 15% discount. After you send me the valuation via email (usually it takes 1-2 days to obtain it) we'll continue our negotiations. What is your preferred payment method: Escrow.com, International wire transfer, PayPal.com or something else? Hope we can come to an agreement fast. Looking forward to your reply.---------------------------------------- I have to admit, the first one I was kinda excited but didn't follow through with it yet and now I get this? Thanks for any input you have!
Typical domain appraisal service scam. You could have found the answer in about 1/8 the time it took you to post this had you just searched.
I suggest no trying it. Don't waste your time. Anything sounds good to be true, it is definately too good to be true
I doubt they are willing to do so and I also don't think that my domain would really be worth that much. It does sound like an appraisal scam but I don't see how the person that sent me the email benefits from it?
