Hello
Today I have seen an interesting post in another web forum
Its about Godaddy
I want to confirm whether it happened with others or not

the thing is, one user purchased/registered an expired domain through godaddy
now that domain listed is his account, but user saying this domain enlisted in godaddy auction with out his knowledge

auction link: https://in.auctions.godaddy.com/trpItemListing.aspx?miid= 129466947 [I had putted a space after '=']
here the pic of screenshot, that domain is listed in his account

it can happen or something wrong with the user, what he is claiming?
 
I read that multiple times that if you try to register a valuable expired domain through godaddy they just take it and register it in their name, thats why i tried to stay away from that company when i registered mine.

Anyone have legit informations about that accusation?
 
Its a strange one for sure but there have been reports of similar things happening over the years.

I don't know if it is happening, and if I'm being honest I am a little sceptical, but it is enough that when checking availability of domains I always stuck to whois servers and other registrars where possible just in case.
 
Someone should try registering godaddysucksballs.com and see if they steal that one.
