Please be aware that there is an email scam on the go for buying your domain name.
They offer to buy your domain name for 65% of its appraisal value then tell you they only accept appraisals from 3 appraisal companies. The cheapest being theirs so they pocket the appraisal charge and you will never hear from them again.
Dear Sir or Madam,
We are interested to buy your domain name XXXXXXX and offer to buy it from you for 65% of the appraised market value.
As of now we accept appraisals from either one of the following leading appraisal companies:
sedo.com
podzz.com
accuratedomains.com
If you already have an appraisal please forward it to us.
As soon as we have received your appraisal we will send you our payment (we use Paypal for amounts less than $2,000 and escrow.com for amounts above $2,000) as well as further instructions on how to complete the transfer of the domain name.
We appreciate your business,
Yours truly,
J. Harris
