You might replicate the fraudulent screenshots with the PayPal.com domain, see if that gets their attention.
That said, isn't the real story that domain escrow services exist for a reason?
- Implicated 11y ago> That said, isn't the real story that domain escrow services exist for a reason? No, story is that Paypal has been a haven for scammers and crooks since it started. The lesson of the story is that they shouldn't be buying domains for any non-trivial amount of money without utilizing an escrow service.

- happywolf 11y agoThat isn't fair to PayPal, it just processes transactions and in this case, the transaction was done _willingly_ by the account owners.
- steve-howard 11y agoSurely not. They're trained to detect counterfeit screenshots and would sniff those out in a second.
- sadkingbilly 11y agoAgreed. Sellers and buyers of domain names (or web sites) selling for at least $300 should use an escrow service. The fee is around $25 and can usually be split between parties. Just think about the price you're paying/selling the site for. If the amount is more than you're willing to lose, use an escrow service.
