hey, how's it going, this is Zester from GFY, you mind sharing with your opinion on Moniker ?

Tranza (15:34):
I've had one single problem with them. But I considered this to be a pretty fucked up one. I had my Godaddy account hacked once, and all my domains where stolen. After this hacker/scammer did this, he parked my domains using a parking service from Moniker to redirect my traffic and make money. After I tried to contact Monikr several times about this, so that they would close his account, they simply ignored me. I was able to get my domains back a week later anyway. But what shoked me is that they simply didn't care at all. Also, whoever did this already hit quite a lot of GFY webmasters, doing the exact same thing, and Moniker NEVER closes this scammer account.

Tranza (15:35):
Cliff notes: they support scammers.

U (15:36):
any idea how the godaddy account got hacked ?

Tranza (15:39):
There are 2 ways they do this.
1- They send a fax with some false documents stating that they are the owners of that domain and want to move it to another GoDaddy account
2- They simply hack you password.

Tranza (15:40):
If you do a search on GFY you'll see that MANY people have been fucked by this exact same scam in the past. And they ALWAYS use Moniker to park the domains stolen.

U (15:42):
kind of a shelter for scammers.... Moniker

U (15:43):
i see

Tranza (15:43):
Yep, that's it.

U (15:43):
so you've been working with namecheap and had no problems with them ? for a few years now ?

Tranza (15:47):
Yep, I've used them for quite a while, and just recently I moved all my domains to them.

U (15:48):
sounds good, thanks for the time mate
cheers

Tranza (15:48):
No problem. See you later man.
