Domains By Proxy, LLC Reviews 28

DomainsByProxy is used by scammers to hide their identity when registering domainnames. I get the businessmodel, but they are not doing enough against scammers.

I was scammed by someone that used the website decemberactie.com to sell fake products. Now he took the website offline after scamming many people. The website is hosted by GoDaddy and registered by DomainsByProxy to protect the identiy of the scammer.

According to WHOIS lookup, Domains By Proxy LLC is the domain registrant of the website albertacorporations.com. It seems to collect data from an Alberta government website and poses as a search engine on Alberta businesses. However, when data change, Domain By Proxy LLC does not keep the information up to date thereby perpetually displays incorrect or out-of-date data on albertacorporations.com. I have tried to contact the owner of the website through its domain registrant email address and phone number. So far, I have not received a response. According to Alberta Queen's Printer (AQP) which is the company that Domain By Proxy LLC appears to be getting their data from, numerous business owners have called to complain, but nothing can be done by AQP as they are not affiliated with Domain By Proxy. First of all, I would like to know why this US company is collecting data from Alberta Canada and not keeping the it up to date. Secondly, I would like the data cleaned up to reflect changes.

Where is the freezer I ordered Cant believe I was ripped off What to do now Are they going to steal from me in the future

They protect scammers. It isn't possible to report sites, that do scams. They are not trustworthy. So they are scammers themselves.

Received fake invoice via this domain so be careful

Supporting scammers. Recently I had a "pleasure" of believing that an advert on Facebook is a legit clothing company. Sadly, only after paying the money and not receiving the goods have I done my due diligence research only to find out that wocraze.com website registered with yourself is a complete fake:
1. It states the company is registered in the US, whilst my credit card clearly states money received in HongKong;
2. No contact details on the page apart from an email address (no phone, registration number or VAT number);
3. Facebook page indicates a picture of some fantasy game, and reports of scam can be found on that page;
4. Many newspapers report that "Chinese clothing companies, using names like DressLily, TideBuy and Zaful, have thrived on Facebook despite thousands of complaints from women saying the sites use stolen, doctored images to sell poorly made knockoff clothing that is often unwearable. Women say the knockoffs take weeks or months to deliver (if they arrive at all) and are almost impossible to return."

If you take out protection by GoDaddy for domains, then DomainsByProxy will police your domains and send you threatening emails. They are scams with other companies listed at the bottom of each email accusing you of stealing their trademark. Under UK law it is legitimate to hold any domain with one or so trademarked words for non-commercial use only. GoDaddy is aware of trademark infringement, yet they are quite willing to sell you these domains with so-called protection and you will unlikely be able to get a refund. Best to register and trademark your domains in the UK. I do not recommend using GoDaddy or DomainsByProxy as they are cheats and scammers.
