Exclamation Scam Artist - Phd - 03-07-2006, 12:39 AM

[SIZE=2]1st email from a scam artist[/SIZE]
[SIZE=2]++++++++++++++++++++++++++[/SIZE]

Hello,

I need to know your price for the domain. You should not ask to make an offer. Please send your price to my email.

Did you get offers from other people?

I run a software company. We develop client-server systems and databases in Oracle for a local company. Buying and selling domain names is not my main business. Just another way to invest money and make additional income.

Best regards,
Michael Kayser Ph.D.
President
BON Software Engineering

[SIZE=2]Sedo is a good broker. Unfortunately , Sedo is not acceptable as an
appraiser because your names are listed with them and they are not
independent. They are interested in earning 10% commission on every sale. I
need appraisals from a company which is not interested in
selling your domains.

I heard many appraisal companies often made inaccurate appraisals. So I
cannot accept appraisal from each and every site. I will only accept
appraisals from independent appraisal companies I know and trust.

[SIZE=2]3rd email from a scam artist[/SIZE]

I wanted to suggest you Afternic.com as an appraiser, but discovered that
this service was not manual. Moreover they have too many complaints.

I found the following info about Afternic at
http://www.igoldrush.com/links3.htm
"Capsule Review: After lots of complaints, Afternic is no longer a
recommended service. We will re-review the service in the near future."

So Afternic.com is NOT acceptable.

Reading responses from experienced sellers I was impressed by one reply:
"Many Internet users are not smart enough and popular domain brokers are
using this fact to make money. They offer them cheap appraisal services. But
if their customers would have something in their heads they'd understand
experts could not make a professional research for $15-$20. These appraisals
are made by machines. Easy money for such appraisers as
http://www.Afternic.com and several other major brokers that offer cheap
auto-generated appraisals. In my eyes, all services under $50-$55 are not
manual and the results are generated by special scripts. I don't trust
auto-generated appraisals."

The same is true for GoDaddy and SEDO. Their services are not manual. They
are just collecting money using their well-known names.

I heard many appraisal companies often overpriced domains. So I cannot
accept appraisal from each and every site.

To avoid mistakes I asked about reputable appraisers in a forum. Several
experts recommended me AllDomains' appraisal service -
http://www.allfordomains.com/appraise.asp as a fast, accurate and
non-expensive manual service.

I also trust the manual appraisal service from http://www.DomainMart.com but
it's very expensive - $200/hour. This service was also recommended by many
people but I thought it was too expensive. But if you can afford
DomainMart.com's fee it's ok with me.

I'm interested in your domain but I don't want to risk and will not proceed
without appraisal. I never change this rule because it helps me to make
good investments. It's a common and honest practice to
provide buyers with appraisals. Only domain owners can benefit from
appraisals.

Sorry, but I don't understand your position.

You can always use this appraisal to promote your name or sell it to
somebody else. But what will I do with the appraisal certificate if you
decide to sell your name to another buyer?

Thank you for understanding. I'm looking forward to do business with you.

I agree with you.

Sedo is a good broker. Unfortunately , Sedo is not acceptable as an
