Anyone have the experience registering a domain name with false personal information?
I’m trying to register one but all provider asks for name and address. Anyone have the experience providing false information? Do they really care enough to check your info manually if you don’t use your domain name for malicious purposes?
particularly interested in experiences with cloudflare
thanks a lot

The issue with using fake details is that you risk getting your account suspended. Also, if your domain gets stolen you’ve made it impossible to retrieve because you will have to verify your information.
How can a domain get stolen?
My domain is still set to a former address of mine and I never bothered to update it fifteen years later.
You could provide an address for your registration… sometimes people make typos.
If there’s truly an audit or verification it’ll be easier to explain a typo than why you said you live at “123 Eat Shit Ave”.
I just use a free PO Box service. Then the Whois guard on top.
