Exclamation  Clever Domain Appraisal Scams

I just read a news item posted at Sedo.com that talks about people being tricked into paying for a domain appraisal:

The scam consists of making the domain owner feel that the domain is valuable, which justifies them getting it appraised, after which any potential buyers vanish.

Yes LOL. And great move nielsencl for putting this here.

We would write an article about this and put it in our Main guidelines section on the top.

Many people have been tricked like this and maybe our article can save some of them.
