I have seen a couple of similar attempts here. There is even one person trying to
transfer someone elses domain to themselves.
However - I stop them in their tracks, because I set the system up in a three step
process. I know it adds to the labour involved -
but there is always a price.
1. They register, or reserve, or transfer or whatever. It's not automatic, I have to
go to the interface an manualy "approve" every
transaction after payment is approved
2. The client in step two makes a payment. Credit Card is a direct link to the bank so
the bank catches any crooks. If payment is
approved, the money is in my bank and I'm paid, and I then go to opensrs and approve
the transaciton.
3. The client sends me a "Confirmation" email from a form on the site if they wish.
Some do some dont
So far I haven't had to contact Admin at OpenSRS about any problems in this area.....
