Hi

As the title says i am looking to buy a hosting company, it doesnt matter if you have 5 customers or 5,000.

All that i ask is that the money comming in, is more than what is going out, or that they are about the same.

I have been a co-owner of a host for the last 3 years but i finaly sold my share of the company to the other owner so that i could go start / run my own.

I am willing to pay a good amount for your company as i dont really want to go make another company from scratch, but i will if i have to.

Thanks for reading this, please either, reply here, pm, or email me atnuke13@gmail.com:)

Tom

Also i forgot to mention, if you own your servers and you are colocating them i will also buy them off you, thanks

Hey nunio,

I just wanted to post here my displeasure about the sale of clients (or should I say, fantom clients) you foisted on myself and another guy here on WHT.

I hope they ban you, in fact I'm going to request it. Do the right thing and send both me and the other guy back the money you stole from us when you sold us clients that didn't exist.

What happened? didn't you verify everything first? Please elaborate so nobody else gets scammed like that

Not well enough, I now see in hindsight. He had a domain that had been registered for some time. He had a reseller account with a reputable company. He showed billing history from PayPal. However I did not insist on logging into these various accounts myself. He also did not want to accept payment by PayPal. Insisted on WU as it would take too long to get money from PayPal and he had a partner to pay off. Also he had some trouble with PayPal in the past locking his account, verified by the reseller. All in all, the price was too good to be true and the seller sent up some red flags that should have warned me. He basically sold the same phantom clients to three of us, but one guy was able to get his WU back because he had not yet given the transaction code to the seller.
