After several months of quiet time, Chinese domain registrar Ename.com emerges once again as the registrar of choice for the transfer of a stolen domain name.
The domain 6213.com was stolen very recently, and was transferred away from GoDaddy.com.
Says its legitimate owner, who is based in Hong Kong:
“I spent hours reading many articles on your website about stolen domain, and found many useful information.
One of my domain 6213.com was stolen last week (Jan 17, 2017) someone hacked into my godaddy account and transferred it to eName.”
At the time of the theft, the following WHOIS information was acquired by DomainTools:

It appears that 6213.com has since been resold, most likely on one of the Chinese domain market places. Its owner has reached out to the proper channels in order to reclaim it.
If you are contacted to acquire the domain, keep in mind that it is stolen property.
We will update this article once new information about its status is made available.
Always remember to enable two-factor authentication at your domain registrar.
