    And now you know why it's important to give accurate information, even if you don't feel comfortable with that.

    One thing I can maybe suggest is to send a copy of your form of payment like a debit or credit card statement. If
    you used something like PayPal, unfortunately you're in a tight spot.

    Only thing I can practically suggest is to truthfully explain your situation with the registrar, try to work out a kind
    of arrangement with them, and hope for the best.

    this happened with me when first time I purchased a domain using my credit card.
    once I have submitted my Credit card scanned copy in their website.
    They unlocked my account.
    Do the same if your issue is with credit card payment.

    Right. There's really no need to hide your information in matters like this. You're in business and your partners need to know about you. So why fake your info? Take the advice of the other posters and correct the deficiency and good luck!

    Why you want to fake your info? Many reasons like spam, tax, spies...

    I know there are some who simply don't want their personal home address available to any whois viewer. I'd recommend a cheap PO box or something similar to use instead. Maybe a hundred bucks a year and it gives you a little more privacy for your registrations.

    Tell them who you are, and say the registration was done by an employee who is no longer with you. Here's the credit card proof it's your domain etc.

    Edit - BTW, in some countries, you can call yourself anything you like. I could start referring to myself as 'Prince Zan the Third' if I wanted. Nothing Blodaddy can do about that.

    You might have to close the account and open another one.

    If you didn't want your identity to be revealed, you should have used anonymous registration instead of faking your details.

    I'd suggest using private registration services for hiding your info, right now you made a BIG mistake...

    Funny :) There goes your domain - unless, of course, you can provide fake documents to backup your fake ID ... LOL
