By this time its red flags on my side as the domains the guy own just happen to be the best gay .co.uk you can imagine. He originally wants $1k for one and within an hour hes back saying lowest he will go is $250 ( yeah must think we are idiots ). No chance im parting with any cash by now but he keeps trying to sell me a full network of sites now. I end up going to whois and getting in touch with the original domain owner who iv just been chatting with. Hes got no idea what im talking about of course lol Moral of the story, something is too good to be true then it probably is. I dont fall for peoples shit but this guy went the full way to try. He had the right email name, skype name,city the guy lived in, where the domains were hosted etc. One other thing that was a red flag with him. Both the gaytube and "domain owner" name he used on skype both had the same issue. It would flash up that they had signed in every 10 - 15 minutes. each time you clicked on there name they were offline. Like a bad internet connection or something. Anyway, good try ya prick but you got fuck all from me so haha

Thanks for the heads up. Gotta be careful nowadays, a lot of scammers lurking.
