Tragic domain story

A friend of mine owned a domain LAMER.COM.


Now he was the original owner of the domain and had for a long time.

Out of the blue this guy started calling him wanting to buy it. After a few days he talked and amoungst friends they called the guy that called almost ever 3 hours "Lamer" since he wouldnt take no for an answer.

SO finally my friend gets on the phone and say awright I will sell it to ya for $30,000.
Lamer within minutes had papers faxed money goes through escrow done deal. Everyone was happy my friend was stked that he actually sold the dmain fr such a high price.

A couple days later LAMER.COM is typed in by one of the IT guys.
Lamer turned out to be a huge Cosmetics company in France.

Alot more would have been on the table with some research.
