[Hidden-tech] Domain dispute

[Dédé Wilson]

No, it did not lapse. A business associate at the time who had access to everything (emails, PINs, etc.) changed everything over to herself without his approval.

I’ve been on the phone with Google fraud, crawled all over ICANN and Whois…BUT I do not have a $99 membership to the section you linked…anyone want to help who is a member?

He was doing business with a partner for the last several years and they have now broken up their business arrangement (all very informal). He has just realized that over the last few months she has transferred his 2 domains to her own ownership via Google and he is locked out of his site and is no longer the “owner” on paper, as it were.
