    I've been scammed on DP twice within the same month now, and more and more people are scammed daily here on DP.

    They use Godaddy and paypal to scam people, by buying a domain, paying for it, receiving the domain and the unauthenticating the paypal transaction so they get there money back and they also keep the domain.

    I know its not DP's fault but you should try to increase security somehow to make it safer place for us to sell and buy here.

    I know the temporary solution is use Monebookers or Escrow but scammers seem to target DP members more than any other marketplace or forum so please try to make it safer for us.

    Thanks,
    Zellomesh

    Nothing you can do. They have all protection everywhere, from Ebay to Paypal, they are protected...

    Sorry moderators and admins dont get involved. Its best not to deal with ANYONE on the forums unless they are well established and if you get scammed you MUST LEAVE iTrader to avoid them from doing it to other people.
