How to avoid domain fraud

A way for domain scammers to get your money is to trick you into they are selling domain and it’s a valued offer. Since the domain scammers not actually doing anything illegal it is difficult to press charges they just sell you over priced domains.

They many different scripts and programs in place to send you spam letters daily and customers in EU and USA can be sure they will get normal mail as well.
These domain scammers can survive because most people do not know how to register a domain and they trust people when they trying to sell them something they want.

An email that the people that commit domain fraud can look like this:
