These days domain thieves seem to have a preference with GoDaddy, utilizing social engineering to gain access to accounts and steal valuable domains.
Several 3-Letter .com domains have been identified as stolen recently and have been offered for sale on DNForum, NamePros and Flippa.
These stolen domains are:
- KOH.com – attempt to sell on Flippa ended with the seller getting banned
- AGH.com – same seller as above; seller banned on Flippa.
- VYQ.com – attempt to sell on Flippa ended with the seller getting banned; pending banning on DNForum
- ASG.com – same seller as with VYQ.com ended with the seller getting banned on Flippa.
- GKZ.com – same seller as with VYQ.com managed to sell the domain on Flippa. Status unclear.
- MXX.com – same seller as with VYQ.com – offered it privately to DNForum members. Status unclear.
The common denominator of those attempted sales: Seller only accepts Paypal, starting price is an undervalued $2k – $2,500 and seller won’t accept Escrow.com
Be careful out there!
