I had them do a PayPal personal transfer today. So far so good.
I already sent them the transfer codes so hopefully nothing odd happens from here on out, lol! I felt good about the buyer, if it’s a scam, it’s quite an elaborate scam with links to several legit sources of their website, phone ID, LinkedIn profile etc. etc. From: Af [mailto:af-boun...@afmug.com] On Behalf Of Forrest Christian (List Account) Sent: Wednesday, June 22, 2016 8:51 PM To: af <af@afmug.com> Subject: Re: [AFMUG] OT Private Sale of Domain Name Always use escrow when transferring a domain name, unless you personally know the seller and/or don't care if you get the domain name stolen from you. Domain names are high-fraud items - it's not uncommon for you to transfer the domain and then the funds either never appear or later get reversed due to credit card fraud. -forrest On Wed, Jun 22, 2016 at 4:42 PM, Sterling Jacobson <sterl...@avative.net<mailto:sterl...@avative.net>> wrote: I have a buyer for one of my defunct domain names I own. I was thinking I would just have them process the domain transfer request. Then when I received that, have them pay me via PayPal personal transfer so I don't have to pay fees on the funds. Then process the transfer request. Anyone see anything wrong with that? They seem legit. -- Forrest Christian CEO, PacketFlux Technologies, Inc.
