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

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.
