Weird e-mail... buying domain for Britney Spears??

I'm guessing this is an I.D. theft scam.

Nigerians must running out of bullshit stories to resort to this.

Hello gentleman,

I would like to make a formal offer of 67 US cents for your domain
'<removed>.com'. Because I am approaching you on behalf of a very
wealthy client, Ms. Britney Spears, I would like this offer to be one
of trust and confidentiality. Because I expect your quick agreement
due to the rather liberal sum of money this offer constitutes, I
expect you will reply with the appropriate deposit information.

It has been a pleasure dealing with you,

Exorbidant L. Tryonia

I doubt this is a joke unless its a total random loser because I only use that email address for domain sales, none of my friends or business associates have it. :1orglaugh

sorry I thought it was worth a try :)

OMG! hand it over quick!

probably phishing for undeliverable contact emails to then try and hijack domains from.

Ah, didn't think of that.

Good point.

Usually those lead to an attempt to get you to pay their "trusted appraiser" for an apprasial since you obviously wouldnt let the name go at that price

the signed name kinda gave me a chuckle since a Tryonia is a snail :)
