Tell HN: A warning not to use namecheap.com – they'll steal your domain,
So I was out for a run and thought I'd check a domain name.
Here's a screenshot from my web browser history on my phone, note the date Monday 27th September.

This morning I thought I'd consider the domain name again, but now it's no longer available. Here's a screengrab from whois - note the date 28th September.

Look I knew the risk but I didn't really think it likely - but here you have it - hard evidence (we'll hard enough to convince me) that namecheap will stgeal any good domain you search in their site.
Try doing a google search on "namecheap stole my domain".
