bona fide sellers have long established a scheme for conducting a transaction, there are ready-made conditions regarding the transfer of money and a domain name. But fraudsters make everything up on the fly, and this is noticeable;
The only payment method offered is the Yandex.Money service. But if the transaction turns out to be fictitious, it will no longer be possible to reverse it, nor will it be possible to return the amount paid.
In general, most often scammers in list building for mlm this area offer their “services” themselves, look for a buyer and offer attractive conditions, a good symbolic name, an impressive domain age, an attractive price and even discounts.
Often, even a bot can correspond with you, so be vigilant, do not fall for obvious fakes and do not allow yourself to be deceived.
Check everything ten times before paying. Make sure that the admin rights are definitely re-registered in your name. Remember: different zones may have different conditions, so make sure that everything is observed.
It may turn out that the resource was transferred to you, but without administrator rights. As a result, the previous owner demands a return, declares that he did not sell anything to anyone, and you will be the swindler in this situation.
And another point: serious sellers most often put forward prepayment as one of the conditions of the deal. While scammers, on the contrary, will say that demanding money in advance is a clear sign of future fraud, and reliable people do not need prepayment. Be careful here too.
It is best to avoid domain names that include the names of popular famous brands or are similar in spelling or sound. Let them be ordinary, ordinary symbolic names or satellites.
This advice is related to the fact that at some point the owner of that very brand will notice his name on your platform and you will certainly start having problems. Firstly, a person can declare his rights and demand payment for using a loud famous name. And secondly, the case may even end up in court, such cases have already happened. And although practice shows that in most cases it is possible to get off with a light fright, who needs extra unpleasant proceedings?
Don't panic if you suddenly receive a "sweary" letter calling you a thief, declaring that you have no rights to the domain and that it must be returned to the owner as soon as possible. First, look at who is writing to you, what kind of trademark it is. It is possible that it does not even have a representative office in Russia.
If the claims are truly justified and legitimate, then all the wording in such a letter must be clear and precise, plus all the required details must be indicated in it.
What can be said about the legality of the actions of interceptors who, having seized a domain, try to resell it? The point here is this: for example, there is a company that owns a domain name with a promoted trademark. If you (thanks to interceptors) have the same name, then this company will suffer large-scale losses. But it is extremely difficult to incriminate those who are engaged in such dubious resales.
