Possible scam? please advise

fermes · 08-10-2008, 06:42:51 PM

I received a pm from a member stating he wanted to buy one of my domains. nothing expensive but �40 is �40. He paid via paypal but have never claimed the domain after I pushed it to his account at GoDaddy. This was days ago. No replies to my emails or pms I checked him out and he has no posts. Is there a way he can reverse the payment then claom the domain all at once? Please advise.

Thanks for yout time

He can only reverse it through paypal claim, I think you're pretty save, since you can prove the name been transfer to his name, keep the transfer e-mails. I think the buyer if the buyer accepted the push then it's a done deal.

Well the push has a time limit I think it was 3 days or 5 days, (check your e-mail) If he doesn't accept the push you might have to push it again
