55588.com back on auction, $91,060 sale did not go through

March 19, 2016 by Raymond Hackney

On March 9th we wrote about 55588.com closing at $91,060 on DropCatch.com. The domain is back at auction. DropCatch noted “Due to complications involving potentially fraudulent activity, one or more auctions you had participated in are being restarted.”

Namebio needs to remove the sale to avoid confusion, I have emailed Michael over there.

    So who are the mystery people behind Bidder #1 and #2?

    Who are they? What there names? Who do they bid on behalf of?

    Anyone know?

      Drop catch doesn’t want you to know, the house always wins, remember that

    there are several domains that should be removed from namebio. for instance, hfh.com which did not complete on GoDaddy

    DropCatch will not release the alias of fraudulent bidders. The next Halvarez?

    “First1” won that auction if I remember correctly. The same bidder is in the current auction.

    Isn’t it strange?

      Not if the second place bidder was suspected of fraudulent activity. Cancel an restart to avoid potential legal issues
