Facebook’s Game of The Year Bought Its Domain For $2,500 on Sedo & Isn’t Using It

Facebook published its 2013 Games of the Year list in the 1st week of December.

The game gets 100 million active monthly users.

The company that makes the game, Pretty Simple SA out of Paris France, bought the matching domain name of the Game of the Year CriminalCase.com for $2,500 on Sedo a year ago.

The domain name CriminalCase.com however remains parked today and has an Alexa rank of 9 Million.

The registrant of the domain is still showing as  Sedo with  transferservice@sedo.com as the registrant’s email.

Many bloggers have chatted in the past even doubting sales because buyers don’t update their whois information or even change their servers.

Doesn’t make much sense, but an example of purchased domain sitting idol for over a year, while the 100 million uses continue to play it on Facebook.
