Unfortunately a large percentage of domain owners are clueless, a fact of 
life has created the opportunites for people like DNA.

Personally, I think a transfer fee (picking a random number ... $50) would 
stop a whole heap of these scams, and the revenue could be used to reduce 
the cost of the base registration fee.

Looking at the scam I mentioned in the previous post .. $280 = approx 56 
registrations, so these guys only need 1 in 56 people to buy back their 
domain names to break even. If a transfer fee of $50 was charged they would 
need 1 in 5.

Providing the revenue of a fee was used to reduce the registration fees, 
eveyone is a winner, arent they?
