texte = Hey Folks My best friend has owned a domian for the past 4 - 6 yrs but mucked up and never renewed it properly, easyspace then asked him for £100 to renew the domain through them or wait 30 days till it went back into public domain. The domain is now owned by a company called buydomains.com who want between $600 and $10000 for the domain... Do you know of any way we can screw them and get it back or are we totally stuffed? (I say *we* as I have run the website for the last 8yrs ... despite having no control over the hosting / domain it has been MY baby through many incarnations...) I think this company must be picking up expired accounts in the hope of getting people backed into a corner and *having* to buy it back for whatever figure they decide... I'd almost put money says they are in kahoots... or even the same people trading as a diferent company... Anyway, let me know what you think... I would have to say the web and legal disputes are an area I haven't played in and am not sure I want to either... Thanks Alan P.S. My Friend owns the company name that the domain is for if that makes any difference? P.P.S. We are in the UK and this is a US Comany that are doing the thievery so I don't know if we can fight them effectively... ------------------------------------------------------------- This message is sent to you because you are subscribed to the mailing list .
