Then Craig goes to Snapnames and becomes Nelson's boss. Craig DOES owe us an explanation or at least a statement declaring his ignorance. I am not accusing him of being involved but what did he know and when did he know it? If he knew nothing, why not? Nelson sold domains to iReit while Craig worked at iReit.

If he knew nothing, why not?

At this point he owes us an explanation. 1. He didn't know what was going on at iReit. 2. He DID know what was going on at iReit and did nothing making him a conspirator. 3. He DID know what was going on at iReit and left the company. Either way, he owes us an explanation about the relationship between ireit and snap since he left one company and went to the other. I don’t know but I would hope that he tells us. At this point he owes us an explanation.

1. He didn’t know what was going on at iReit.

2. He DID know what was going on at iReit and did nothing making him a conspirator.

3. He DID know what was going on at iReit and left the company.

Either way, he owes us an explanation about the relationship between ireit and snap since he left one company and went to the other.

Doesn't make sense. It's very possible he was involved in uncovering it, but I don't know why on earth he would have taken this job if he knew this was going to happen.

The next move is up to Craig Snyder and Oversee.

Nelson Brady is pretty well known as a senior executive at Snapnames and domain buyers know the owner/seller of a domain. Right? You are not going to send paypal to someone@privacyprotect.org. Right? So, if someone bought a domain from Nelson Brady, and knew he was the VP of Snapnames and chose to look the other way, I think there is a problem there. Now, the next question is, was Brady working for someone at iReit or other strong buyers? Interesting that Craig Snyder came from iReit. No? iReit can't buy lots of domains from Nelson Brady and not know what's going on. So, if iReit bought lots of domains from Nelson and didn't think anything of it then they are either stupid or part of the conspiracy. So, Craig goes from iReit to Snap and didn't know what was going on at iReit? Look, I am not a big conspiracy theorist but if iReit was buying domains from Nelson Brady, they had to know, or should have known that something was not right. If Craig Snyder worked at iReit and didn't know iReit was buying domains from Nelson Brady then he's a pretty stupid guy or he's in on it. So, either Craig Snyder is stupid or he is one of the conspirators? Fair question? Answer? Either way a resignation might be appropriate. This story has a LONG LONG way to go. “So the people who were buying from him may not have had any idea.”

iReit can’t buy lots of domains from Nelson Brady and not know what’s going on. So, if iReit bought lots of domains from Nelson and didn’t think anything of it then they are either stupid or part of the conspiracy.

So, Craig goes from iReit to Snap and didn’t know what was going on at iReit?

Fair question?

Answer?

Either way a resignation might be appropriate.

This story has a LONG LONG way to go.

But we know he sold some to iREIT, and they were buying big portfolios. However, he did transactions with parking companies using the name Henry Alvarez, and perhaps he sold domains at Alvarez, too. So the people who were buying from him may not have had any idea. Rob – I don’t know how many domains he sold. But we know he sold some to iREIT, and they were buying big portfolios.
