I'll add another scenario I've personally experienced:

- Reaching out in good-faith with an offer to sell the domain to you. I've had that happen in the past and before receiving the email the person directed the domain to my official website to show good will. I purchased the domain and now own it.

Not saying this is the case here, but just wanted to throw a legitimate scenario into the mix. They should have reached out by now if this was the case.
