Hi,

 

I visited site called WebHostKenya.com to search for the
availability of the domain name wingu.co.ke and hopefully be
able to register it, the domain name not available so I
searched for an alternative wingu.ne.ke

 

When I made the initial search the domain name was available
just to check again a few minutes later and it had been
taken up, the concerning issue is that the registrar in
question is the one who holds the wingu.co.ke domain name.

 

Is this my over active conspiracy mind at work or is it
possible that the registrar can view my search and then
register the domain so as to force me to pay him more later?

 

Regards
