I do buy and sell domains which is why i was trying to access my account.... and yes there is no ID needed... but fucking shit... I dunno how the hell he got all of that shit considering I didn't have the acct info needed to get in.

that's good news. here's why. godaddy has a strange policy that few people know about, yet the few that do know it... COMPLAIN about it: If any change is made to the WHOIS record, in terms of contacts/ownership, not nameservers, THAT domain CAN NOT be transferred out of goddady for 60 days. they put that policy in place to help with the hijacking problems... yes it is a strange policy that does not offer "preventive" measures, but it saves your ass when you need it. most complainers don't like the fact that they can't transfer out to a buyer if a recent change has been made, godaddy's solution is a simple push. all the hijacker can do at this stage, if what you say is correct, is to push the name into another godaddy account (traceable and easily recovered) vs transferring it out to another registrar which is what most hijackers NEED to do immediately. so, tho you still have problems, at least you have a great chance to get your account and all domains back. personally imo, someone may have installed a keylogger on your pc, or ???

email me asap, and I will give you contact info for my handler at GD and you can call him tomorrow and hopefully he can remedy the situation or hand you over to the right person in security.

email in sig.

good luck.
