* * Who Else Here Had A Domain Hijacked? I've gotten 3 GFY e-mails already.
 

It seems like there is a GFY connection with these domain hijackings. I've gotten 3 e-mails from webmasters saying the same thing happened to them and asking for the high level contact at dotster that I got for Sleazy to contact.

I've already relayed the contact info to Sleazy, so let's take it one at a time. I don't want to bombard this guy since the referral came through a friend a mine.

i wonder if the other ones were shit talkers too...

... almost 5 years ago whitepower.com (1500 typeins per day back then) was hijacked, the guy still runs it today. I tried everything to get it back, but couldn't get anywhere. the domain was hijacked by simply sending a transfer email to networksollutions.

:disgust

what did you have on the site?

... refreshed it to a gay site run by dollarmachine and it did really well.
:winkwink:

hehe... never would've guessed :upsidedow

I just found something really disturbing. I registered a new domain with Registerfly just yesterday, and I made damn sure it was locked.

I looked at it today at whois.sc, and the status was Active. Checking Registerfly, the lock was gone. I checked a handful of other domains, and about one in five was no longer locked - I verified the locks on all my domains a couple weeks ago. I bulk-locked them all.

I'll be watching this - it's pretty fucked up.

... I wonder if there might be a possiblility to get it back when talking to the right people this time, I almost forgot about it. it was stolen 5 years ago, I think I still have the fake transfer emails somewhere ...

The russians are watching GFY

the right hookup will get you whatever you want... i'm making some calls now :winkwink:

im glad im with godaddy.com, its such a pain in the ass to transfer a domain with them no one would waste their time trying to steal them

dude, lock your freaking domains

LOL

Now thats funny :1orglaugh

They are locked! Seems like hackers found a flaw at Dotster.

godaddy is not imune to this. It happens over there quite often.

OK, I sent the contact info to one of the 3 who had a real sounding letter. One of the others I accidently deleted so resend them to me and I'll hook you up with the contacts I got.

... and what's even funnier ... the domain was http://www.blackstreetboys.com/ ... I picked that domainname myself and even better there where only black schlongs on the site (they changed it now) and it did really well ... fucking nazis !!


abyss_al, if you got the connections ... hit me up !!

If you guys want a highly secure registrar, I would suggest going with Moniker. Ask for Monte. Its a smaller registrar, compared to some of the big ones mentioned, but he handles all the major domain accounts himself personally so its literally like having a human bodyguard protecting your domain.

Amen to that man :thumbsup

haha yeah really.. Forgive me if I dont give a fuck that the fucktard lost his domain.. What goes around comes around I guess. Funny shit.

im tryin to transfer a domain millerbeers.com to the miller beer company and have had to unlock the domain 3 different times, each time they somehow relocked it, now they need the last 4 digits of my social as well as the last 4 digits of my credit card number, just to transfer one domain. Im not worried about anyone stealin any of my domains i have with godaddy.com

what's with all the domain hijacking cases lately? I just read about something similar on another board as well...

wierd i wonder if the guy read the thread i made along time ago, i had listed a bunch of popular domains that were UNLOCKED and lots had nonworking emails, so the transfer email would just bounce , thus go thru

Yeh, GoDaddy has really locked things down. You have to have codes to communicate and get things done. Good move.

the guy got F3.COM also * dont click it unless you have virus protection

Have you heard anything bad, or have any thoughts in general, about Register.com ?

Appreciated.

I don't use them so no haven't heard.

k, thanks anyway.

Question is open to all :winkwink:

I have bulk-locked them all a while ago too, with RegisterFly. I just checked them through whois.sc and they're still locked. Might be an isolated incident?

So is DirectNIC the best choice out there these days, in regards to management as well as support?

enom.com ... stay with the pro's, FULLSTOP !!!

I just went in and made sure that all of mine are locked. I guess this will become on of those monthly checks.

do they give support over the weekend too?

I hate this shit and feel sorry for whoever it happens too...

bad idea


for top security use either if these 2
