    Copy of the email:

    The funny thing, or not, is that any of my domains had any hits, almost of them were 0 visits/traffic. I reply to their email and I'm still waiting for any feedback.

    I searched google for some similar cases and boom, got hundreds of posts on blogs and forums writing about sedo scamming people.

    Anyone had similar experiences with sedo like me? What should I do?

    same here. there is nothing you can do.

    I asked them to list domains that they claim had spam traffic and they listed domains that get like 1 visitor per month or that I even just bought on THEIR auction just days earlier

    they SUCK big time

    The reply to my complaint:
    I thought they were a little professional... They don't have proof of spam traffic but still they deleted my account. That's like sentencing a criminal to death without any proofs...

    its simple, move on, find another decent network that you can park your domains...how much money are they talking about withholding...if its not enough to make a car payment, then you lost nothing. maybe they are just cleaning out their network of inactivity as some of you say you receive little to no traffic...so how would this be useful at all to sedo? find another network.

    then why not say so?
    Why not just say "we're closing your account due to below-minimum activity on your domains?"
    I think a company should not systematically lie to its clients.

    For me Sedo was just for selling on their featured list, so I had paid before for it, not a bad client in my opinion. Not the right way to deal with clients.

    Spam traffic... I have heard this issue with old domains that people used to pay for traffic, or old proxies etc. I don't like the fact they can just shut you off without even a warning, or just taking out that domain name. It might not have even been you.. .like if you had an enemy, they could pay for spam traffic and get you banned. Very sad. Sorry to hear
