and you had their passport, resume, date of birth, home address, and phone number... how would you go about doing it?

Long story short, some 20 year old douchebag from Vietnam stole my course-notes.org domain name a month ago and sold it back to me for a large amount of money.

Thoughts I've had so far:
-Hiring a lawyer in Vietnam to go after him
-Setting up a ngominhheiuisathief.com page and SEO the shit out of it
-Contacting anyone listed as a reference/previous employer on his resume

Here are the details I have on him so far:

[FONT=&quot]Name: Ngo Minh Hieu
Address: 33/3 Le Van Sy, Phuong 13, Quan Phu Nhuan
City: Ho Chi Minh
Zip code: 70000
Country: Viet Nam
Phone: +84972666627
Email: hieupc@gmail..com / [/FONT] hieuitpc@yahoo.com

See attached passport image and english translation of his resume.

Thoughts?

I wonder if Vietnam has any international legal agreements with the US when it comes to protecting the privacy of individuals. (in short you could be setting yourself up for some nasty criminal charges especially now that this thread is indexed over simply losing a domain).

PS: What's up with this spelling "Viet Nam" (unless you mean the native Việt Nam)?

If by 'stealing', you mean he registered the domain when it expired, that's not really stealing.

If, on the other hand, he hacked into your account, go nuts. Destroy him.

Only other thing I can think of, is he:

A) had the domain unlocked and didn't respond to the transfer notification in which the transfer proceeded as usual without his intervention.
B) He sold the domain to him, used paypal, and the buyer reversed the payment after the transfer.

But seeing as he's a hosting guide, I doubt (a)
 
If the information in the resume is correct, try to contact his current work place and inform them on his activities. Find his relatives and tell them to persuade him to give back the money.
 
Nope... I remember the thread... it was regged at godaddy, and the dude stole it.

Burry him.


What I can't believe is that Godaddy wouldn't do anything!?! Tell me I'm fuckin mistaken please? *ducks in worry of own portfolio*

In the event that the transfer was initiated by the account holder, godaddy will not do anything to reverse the transfer. Basically thus why I was thinking it was a sale going on, and the payment got reversed. Cuz if the guy actually 'hacked' into his account, godaddy would be more accommodating.

Yup, somehow the guy was able to get access to my godaddy account, and then transfer the domain name out. Just to be clear, there was no sale and it was not expiring anytime soon I've wiped my computer clean since then and had a couple security audits performed on the server so I doubt that's gonna happen again.

GoDaddy and especially Enom were very unhelpful even after I sent them upwards of 50 pages of documents including an admission of guilt from the hacker. If I were you, I'd transfer your domains to moniker and set up the domain maxlock protection that requires proof of identification and other documentation to be provided to transfer away any domains.
 
With all that information can't you steal his identity and prove to godaddy that you're the owner of his account and transfer his domains elsewhere? p0wnd!

Either that, or, I have to imagine outsourcing an asswhuppin in Vietnam can't be too expensive. Get a volume discount for having the guy smacked every week for the next three years.
 
Can you not sue godaddy? I'd recommend talking to an attorney to lay out your legal options. Something like this happened to me and I just spoke to the customer service of my hosting company and they fixed it.

I did hear a story about a guy advertising his gun for hire services on craigslist once.
 
This is what I would tell the guy who stole your domain:

"...so whatever your thinking; you better think again; otherwise I’m going to have to head down there and I will rain down in a godly fuck’n fire storm upon you, your going to have to call the fuck’n United Nation to get a fuck’n binding resolution to keep me from fuck’n destroying you! I Am Talking Scorched Earth Mother Fucker! I will Massacre You! I WILL FUCK YOU UP!"

Yah, but that could get me in hot water for perjury. Don't want to get a felony on my record for something stupid.
 
-Rank a page to inform future potential employers of what he did

-Contact his current employer

-After that, write off the amount he stole in making you buy it back and forget about it. Sounds like gay advice when you want revenge but instead of hurting him just protect others (warn employers)

I'd be more inclined to want to destroy the rep of godaddy and enom for their lack of assistance in this matter than I'd be to try to get money or pain out of the hacker.
 
Too bad he doesn't live in the US. Ordering 50 pizzas to someones house using Dominoes and then watching their online delivery tracker was golden.
