Sep 6, 2016 at 16:30 comment added MonkeyZeus If it's not too late then work with your registrar to disown the domain entirely and possibly incur the loss of whatever you paid to acquire it. If the client has not searched for it's availability yet then you will not come across as shady once they wish for you to find a domain for them; presuming they do decide to work with you.

Sep 6, 2016 at 9:44 comment added SantiBailors We thought we were protecting him from domain lookups that buy the domains you search for. If you give explanations to this person, don't use that argument, or any other one that - like that one - begs for the question "Then why did you do that without telling me first ?".
Sep 6, 2016 at 8:30 comment added RenatoIvancic I do not see this so problematic. The only thing is if you now offer him domain with fair price or will you try to get unreasonable high amount of money for it. If you get the job of course.

Sep 6, 2016 at 6:36 comment added Mario Here where I live is forbidden by the law to register a domain with a name or brand name that belongs to another person. If your client got a trade mark or a registered company with a certain name, and you registered the domain, then this is a law violation and he can sue you, you will loose the domains and probably give an indemnification.
Sep 6, 2016 at 4:53 comment added mckenzm Insider trading is unlawful in just about every jurisdiction. The perceived retention leverage this gives you is an unjust enrichment.
