Anyone Receiving Lots Of Domain Offers Lately?
 
I assume someone is making offers in bulk. Anyone else getting these emails?

lazycash 02-18-2006 01:12 AM

I'm not, but if its what I think it is, then its a scam. They tell you they are interested in your domain only with the intention of taking your domain without payment.

SVT Electronics? or something like that?

"Eric Rowe" seems to be mailing people in bulk with offers. No idea who he is.

I've also been getting offers from random people using yahoo.com.uk, yahoo.com.au, and gmail addresses.

Jason 02-18-2006 01:25 AM

cool..

then whoever emailed me today must be a serious buyer.

:)

There's one guy doing it to test if its a valid e-mail on your reg info so he can transfer out the domain.

Another company is running a scam to entice you they have a client interested in buying your domain for a huge amount of money, but you have to pay them a fee first.

BEWARE of BOTH!!

I got one from Thona LLC at a Yahoo address. I never pay any attention to unsolicited offers. I figure if someone's really in the biz and interested, they know me and how to contact me by name :)

Brujah 02-18-2006 02:32 AM

The pace has picked up for me too.. but I recognize most of them except for the guy who says he wants you to "get an appraisal first" lol. I figure he's pulling some appraisal service scam.

Mr Dickovitch 02-18-2006 07:30 AM

Eric Rowe spammed me too, along with some other fake companies from Yahoo addresses.

ThumbLord 02-18-2006 07:44 AM

yep here it is:

Hello,

I have a client who's working on a new project and
would be interested in purchasing your domain name,
("my domain name")

Would you be willing to sell?

Please reply with any interest at your earliest
convenience.

If you could give me a price or ballpark figure to
take back to my client that would be great as well.

Thank you,

Eric Rowe
(his e-mail addy)

Been getting this once a month for quite some time now :

Hello,

I have a client who's working on a new project and
would be interested in purchasing your domain name,
"asiaorgasm.com".

Would you be willing to sell?

Please reply with any interest at your earliest
convenience.

take back to my client that would be great as well.

Thank you,

Eric Rowe

Mine says Hello,

Sorry to bother you, however I would like to ask if the
blahblahblah.com domain name is for sale.
If we can agree upon a price, I can make payment securely and quickly via
Escrow.com.

Could you let us know what price you would consider?
Thank you greatly for your time. I anticipate your response.

Take care,

Thona LLC

I really don't even HAVE any "good" domains which makes it even more suspicious ;)

Rochard 02-18-2006 09:00 AM

I got a phone call yesterday from someone who sounded like they were calling from India. They were asking about a domain name I'm not using and wanted my fax number to they could fax me information about "changes to my domain name". Um, no.

Haha.. I got that one too :thumbsup

Getting way more bids on my Sedo parked domains lately too, wonder if those are trying to pull some scam too ?
