Haris is on a distinguished road

  Old  Scammer!

Hello ,

Day before yesterday me and Gareth@enthonia aka Gareth merged our websites together specially webdtalk.com and webhole.be.It was all ok for a day but then yesterday we had planned to sell prcheck.net for around $100 for which he made a thread on his forum and other forums and maybe he sold it, He also told me to trade webdtalk.com for around 5 websites which I didn't because it smelled fishy to me.

Yesterday , He asked me for namecheap account and said that he wanted to see what domains I've got. I gave him the password and when today I logged in I saw *what the ***** prcheck.net and webdtalk.com domains gone and i'm left with 7 domains , I did a checkdomain and saw these domains under other people . I asked him what happened and he said he didn't know. It was all him , I am taking legal actions again him and called namecheap to resolve the problem As soon as possible.

I ask you to not to do business with this 12 years old kid named Gareth.I'm really sorry to do any deals with this kid and I've lost 2 domains.

Regards,
Muhammad Haris

Why the hell did you give a complete stranger your password?

He won't be around here much longer, but whilst I do have sympathy for you, I will also say that it was your own fault.

However, I do hope you get your domains back.

Regards.

Never give out your password. 'fraid you've learned the hard way.

I take it you've changed your password now?

Yes , I was completely stupid to give out the passowrd but anyways I have changed my password , only 7 domains left in my account!

He also said that his brothers are pro webmasters and will take my websites down if I harmed him in anyway yesterday!

He is also a friend of two people I know known as Globalgamez and gamezmania and they are partners , The full story is that i may be wrong within the names but gamezmania told me to install a portal on his forum for $5 which i successfully did and then he sended me $5 but he asked me to tell his partner $10 which I didn't told him because i'm a honest man but now they are lying that i scammed them.

Where is this world going ? If i do good with anyone what I get in return , Hate.

Is this the way to treat people who are honest ?

Regards,
Muhammad Haris

I am sorry but chat logs mean nothing these days. Namecheap don't take chat logs as evidence because there are programmes that can be used to make logs up. I think you have lost the domains unless you can prove they were yours in the first place and you have the receipt to buying them.

However wrong he was to push your domains, it's your fault for giving him your password and I don't see what legal action can do as Namecheap don't just give domains back to people who give out their password to anyone. I'm sure its in the TOS somewhere.
