What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? California
I purchased a domain name (.org site) of an NFL football player in April 2011.
Recently, his people contacted me to purchase the site from me. I countered their offer at a much higher price.
They apparently didn't like my offer, and contacted me today to let me know that they could take legal action against me. Since the website is his name he has full rights to the website. They said what I've done is called ‘Cybersquatting’, which is illegal.
Is this an action course of action they could take, or could I simply renew my annual dues and keep it? Just curious...I will likely move forward with their offer and sell them the domain...
Thanks for the insight.
