Who say’s you can trust me?


First let me explain you a bit how things happened. I had to register some domains so I called a person I know since many days who has been dealing with these things. His name is Faizan and he runs a computer center. My domains were registered within few hours but due to lack of knowledge he put my domains in his account instead of creating a new one. Now in his account there were many domains, one of his own, three of mine and about eight of some client. Now one day the client asked for the Cpanel login details. Mr. Faizan was smart enough to not to give it immediately and ask me beforehand that is there any risk? (I thank to him for this) he called me and I said that I’ll make myself a new account and move all my domains in my own account leaving the client so that you can safely give him the login details. He agreed. I started moving the domains to my account one by one and at last 9 domains were left, one of Mr. Faizan and rest were of a client. I called Mr. Faizan to ask that should I leave his domain in the account or move it too? He immediately said, “No No don’t leave it, move all our domains to your account and only leave the client domain’s in that old account.” Ok I started doing so but WTH; the domain was locked by reseller guy. I called the reseller who is also friend of Mr. Faizan to unlock it so that I can move it (I explained to him that Mr. Faizan has asked me to do so). First he agreed then said, “Umm ok but please first say to Mr. Faizan to call me or SMS me to unlock it, you know its critical matter!” he said with a bit cracking voice. I said ok ok no problem I’ll say him to call you and confirm it. Now here’s what I want to say, you don’t trust me? You thought I would steal a Rs.350 domain ? Ok you don’t but what on the earth will go wrong if that reseller would have said Ok I am unlocking it and just to confirm he would have called Mr. Faizan himself. These are the small things which matters a lot. When I first met this reseller (he came to my house for some work) he asked me to buy more domains and also refer others to buy from him. Being helpful I always referred and my friends also building trust with him. But know when he don’t trust me he has lost more than just a customer.
