> you can literally write anything in the whois though
replyIt's still fraud though. And there are multiple ways that might trigger an investigation into the validity of your contact info, such as abuse reports, court cases or failing to renew. Some people with axes to grind have been known to get domains of people they don't like taken down just by complaining to the registrar.
I have a .EU domain, of which I'm no longer eligible thanks to Brexit, but the WHOIS is just some junk to make it "valid".
replySounds like a liability when you upset someone enough that they try to get you taken down.

replyyou can literally write anything in the whois though
replyCan confirm.
I have a domain that's had outdated whois information since 2006. Nobody cares.
Even when it was up to date, it never got any spam, I suspect because the contact information was in a country that wasn't valuable to spammers.
Good luck in your gamble.
