Evening all, This has probably been mentioned several times here but i think it's always good to keep these things in the front of your mind. So i would just like to inform you of a couple of dodgy emails i have received in the last couple of days which are clearly scams. Here you go: Hello, What is the price of your domain? We are very interested in it. Good domains are wise investment in the future. Our company is interested in easy-to-remember domain names. If you have other domains for sale feel free to send your list. Looking forward to do business with you. Regards, Andrew Weisberg CEO OB Real Estate LLC So i replied to him asking him to offer and heres his reply(he's a generous fellow): We were celebrating newborn child of my brother. I apologize for delay with my answer. Can you accept 15,000 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 and my partners trust. To avoid mistakes I asked domain experts about reputable appraisal companies. Please check this blog with suggestions from other sellers and buyers: http://nametalk.007sites.com/Archive/692538.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. Anyway just keep on your toes guys and once again sorry if these has been brought up before but i hate to see people get scammed.
This scam already exist years ago. Each day i have received not less than 3 this kind of email. Don't waste your time replying this kind of email. Just a tips for you all,if really there are company interested to buy your domain,they will phone you.
I suppose that in any case it is up to what to do with that email. If I were you I would not pay any attention to it
