Very strange eBay domain auction...

[miked]

Hey,

I came across an auction on eBay, and I had to read it a few times to check I'd got the gist:

Weird Auction

It's an auction for a domain name in which the seller doesn't tell you what the domain is, but rather gives a series of cryptic clues.

Is this a joke? Am I missing something?

Strange.

In fact, check the sellers other auctions:

most of them have the same zero feedback highest bidder - complete scam!!

The sad thing is that people actually fall for this.

The craziness increases!

Really, what type of mentality could come up with this? Or, as has been pointed out, fall for it?
