Looks like the cover is officially busted; former VP of Engineering at Snapnames Nelson Brady is the notorious “Halvarez” who bid up thousands of auctions thus driving selling prices severalfold. In the event of successful bids, he made sure that he’d issue refunds to himself – a sure winning situation.
This practice cost thousands of dollars to many between 2005 and 2007, myself included. Snapnames issued guidelines at http://www.snapnames.com/faq.html
Nelson, Big Joe Bubba is patiently waiting for you to drop the soap in the shower at the federal prison.
