Well, if they don't match your records than they can update it to make it correct. This also confirms that they really control the domain :-)<br>
<br>
Anyway, the WHOIS records I find are more correct than not or they are obscured (privacy).<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:12.0pt"><br>
Besides that, email addresses found in the WHOIS records can't be really incorrect I assume...which is the only thing used for a domain control validation.<o:p></o:p></p>
