>Nate ended up buying both sites for only $5,000—amazing value, considering they were fraudulently purchased from us for nearly $23K!

Really, is that how you decide that something is an amazing value?

Yeah - the "heroes" in this story don't come off as terribly appealing. The "happy ending" caption was the nail in the coffin for me.

No. Amazing value because those sites combined were earning close to $1,200 per month in profit. $5K for that is an absolute steal, so Nate was just happy he got an amazing deal. (And didn't know the sites were stolen)
