I need to get in touch with the abuse teams at LinkedIn, Namecheap and GoDaddy about impersonation of the GrapheneOS project. If anyone can help with expediting this please get in touch with me. It's an urgent matter. It's unfortunate that people continue trying to pull scams.

Your abuse form workflow isn't working for this. It doesn't allow me to submit based on what the problem is due to not being able to fill out required fields. This isn't an adequate response. I need to talk to someone on your abuse team. The forms do not work for this.

Someone registered a domain supposedly on our behalf and redirected to our site. They keep falsely presenting themselves as a co-founder of GrapheneOS despite not having that kind of involvement. Their registration of this domain is part of that and is a serious problem.
They said they would turn over the domain to us when we asked for it but then they cut off communication with us and are not responding to any communication anymore.
Very concerned about how they're using the domain such as holding on it to send legitimate looking emails, etc.

I recommend checking out our trademark/copyright infringement policy and filing a complaint if you feel they are violating it. godaddy.com/legal/agreemen
As for the domain itself, this would fall under a domain name dispute which you can find info about on the provided link. ^Kris

This essentially states that you do the bare minimum required by ICANN and the law, so you won't actually do anything to help us with this and we have to address it externally. That's quite unfortunate. There's no provided way to actually contact you about this kind of issue...
