warning Scam Warning Regarding Seller Presenting as George Dikian: [email protected]

[polymath2022]

$20,000.00 in USDC was sent to someone presenting themselves as George Dikian, [email protected].​

The seller agreed to sell gato.com for $50,000.00. The seller agreed to transfer the domain after $20,000.00 USDC in cryptocurrency was sent, and then the remainder of the funds would be sent after the name was transferred.​

The seller then quit responding to emails and did not send the domain name or a refund.​

Has anyone else had experience with this seller? If so, please share your experiences.​

file police report first and then you could ask TUCOWS to reveal all data related to [email protected]

goodluck getting them to reveal details because you can get crime reference number with a phone call in UK.

if they did reveal details people would be leaving that company. they'll only cooperate if police go to them directly or there is a court order, otherwise no chance

Clearly the person claiming to be the domain owner is not the real person.

The scammer probably phished the email login information from the real G Dikian. Oldest trick in the book. And the scammer probably has access to their portfolio as well. They would have sent gato.com if it came down to it, but they rather get the money and run.

What exactly would you say to Tucows?

@Ariff BD -- Curious if you could explain more. Did a buyer contact hoping you could broker the buy side of these domains which lead you to contacting Dikian?

It seems VPN.com was approached by somebody claiming to be Qiang Due looking for VPN to broker the purchase of domains owned by Dikian. Curious if you experienced something similar?
