Persiankitty.com sale scam!
 

First...

If you receive an email from anyone stating they are selling persiankitty.com don't believe them. It's not for sale at any price let alone the pittance this scam artist is asking.


Last week, I received a handful of emails from people looking for information regarding an email they had received from a guy named "Peter Barnidge" and "Peter Brome". His email claimed that he was looking to sell the domain persiankitty.com (not a misspelling of the real name). His initial correspondence was through a Yahoo email address (big clue right there). I have seen a subsequent email address that was from UNC.edu (University of North Carolina).

When pressed for more information in reponse to his email, he claimed to be a co-ower of Meow Media, Inc. (my corporation of which I am sole owner and officer). He presented (not titled) traffic and revenue reports when asked. I've not see these reports at all nor heard what they claimed.

Anyone that emailed me regarding this last week received a reply from me that the domain was not for sale and that Mr Barnidge was attempting to scam them.

Today I received an email from someone who believe him enough to deposit money in his Paypal account. He'd told the guy that he and I were both students working on Master's in Accounting at UNC and needed money for medical bills and tuition.

I don't know if the person he scammed has any recourse or not. It doesn't sound like there was anything in writing, just via email.

Buyer beware!

go get the bastard !!

Tell em PK

Mess with the best die like the rest.

Please direct all inquiries about persiankitty.com to me as I am the new owner. I just bought it for $29.95 :)

Email me the guys email address ill try to help, info {at] hotlocalescorts.com

Steve Cohen strikes again

Is it really wise to use Network Solutions as the registrar for the domain? ..

They are not exactly known for their ability to see through scams ...

Just something to consider

Amazing what some fools will try to pull off these days. *shakes head*


Incidentally, just how much was he asking? Was it an insultingly low amount, like $50k?

All of my correspondence with them has to have a password for authentication. They email me any attempts at change... (believe me their has been attempts).

I don't even think it was $5K.

I was about to say the exact same thing, I'd be careful. Next time use Directnic. :thumbsup

Keep in mind I know they weren't around when you registered persiankitty.com and pk.com. :)

:1orglaugh

and here I though I now owned persian kitty......damn.......


just be happy they didn't get any controll of your register.

there's always some theif trying to run some sort of scam out there, the funny thing is if these theives ran honest businesses they would probally make MORE money.

i'll give you $1.50 for it....

i know it seems kinda low, but it would take most of my day to run that site, too much work

PK, drop my a line mrthumbs AT noncore.com : got something for you.

Always nice to see the scum caught red handed. :)

Wow - I am glad they did something.

Seems like getting cops inolved in internet scams is sometimes nearly impossible.

Selling the site for $2,000 - bet he thought he was getting a deal.

Guess he never heard of the "if its too good to be true"...

I just wonder who this guy was that he would be clueless enough to think a site like Persian Kitty would go for 4 figures. LOW 4 figures at that!

A thing I found odd was the only revenue stuff he presented was an AlbionMedical affiliate account. I don't even have one.

Let's put it this way.. People paid him, right? Because people are stupid. He picked a price that people would be willing to part with, preying on those who can't resist a deal that is too good to be true.

Probably figured it would be easier to get nibbles for a very low amount than a very high one.

Anyone want to buy the Hun? Only $100.

They negotitated the price @ $2000. With $1000 down and 25% of the sites earnings for the first six months.
($1000/6 months = $166 a month x 4 = $664, so PersianKitty makes a whopping $664 a month)

Damn PK, times must be tough over there huh? :1orglaugh

Yeah..

Couldn't even afford hot dogs to go in the buns this month. Donations for hot dogs and mac and cheese can be made to my paypal account.

oooooo where is my kitty kat , kitty kat.....

Stroking meeeeeeeeee

Whoa! Right in my backyard. Nothing like bible belt scammers.

Glad it all worked out for ya PK.

Dang hun...

I had my checkbook out and was about to write you a check.

Well shit.

I guess, i'll go with my second choice and get that sex.com one.
:glugglug

No, I'm talking about the buyer, I know why the "seller" set such a low price, but anyone who owns an adult site should know that you can't buy a domain like persiankitty.com for spare change.

No problem.
I'll send ya a pack of oscar mayer's and a box of velveeta for every listing I get on the front page :Graucho

promises promises...

so PK, I sent the money requested in the email, when are you transfering your URL over to me???

nahh.. there weren't enough commas and zeros in what you sent.
