A couple of things I do are....
1. I ask the seller to unlock the domain and show me a screen shot of the domain in their control panel.
2. I use the cira contact form to send an email to the registered opwner. In that email I insert a PASSWORD and I ask the seller to tell me what that password is. Assuming the seller has access to the registered email address they will be able to tell me what the password is.
Those are my favourite security checks when I am dealing with someone I don't know.
What precautions do you take?
