[gnso-rds-pdp-wg] Use Case - False registration data to appear as Facebook owned domain name

[Susan Kawaguchi]

The registrar sent an email to Domain at fb.com which I received but I immediately responded it was not a valid registration and asked for transfer.  No word yet.

All phishers need is a few days to use the domain name.

Curious, how did it get validated?

Hello All,

Attached is a use case we run into frequently, bad actors will use valid Facebook information in the registration data to make the registration to appear authentic.
