Hey I just got a $150.00 check from the attorneys of a major worldwide company for transferring a Domain Name to them that included their name.

I really thought it happened the other way around -- that they would want me to pay them!

The attorney wrote me a letter asking me to remove the site -- so I did -- and that since I was clearly violating their trademark name that they wanted possession of the name in exchange for the $$

I bet all companies are not this friendly!
