Yep... this happend to me, also.. I was looking for a xxxxx.net domain. I actually found one that wasn't registered so I wanted to buy it. I've added some money to my paypal account, and.. when I returned to the registrar to buy the domain.. it was taken
. I even tried to whois on that domain.. but all the data was private.
Registrar: name.com
I don't know if they do this with every searched domain.. but with the 5char-ones.. i'm pretty sure they do.
