LMAO, i replaced the domain name with MyDomain.com but it was actually a domain i already owned and the link to the scam site passed along the domain name and the price. Then it gives you a form to buy the domain with a credit card. Its hilarous they are using whois info to sell ppl their own domain names
 


When I registered my domain through godaddy I got a bunch of shit in my snail mail about hosting and autorenew. No one ever tried to sell it to me again though, that is pretty funny.
 
I dont understand why someone would buy their own domain? I know people who register domains that are complete fucking idiots, and dont know the net. But why would they buy the domain from some email. They would probably call their registrar before forking over such a large chunk of change. Also, were they processing the order with credit card?
