This is an old enough "technique" dating back to a few years - re-registering an expired domain that belonged to the ARIN contact, and filling out the ISP paperwork. There does seem to be something that needs to be done - its not something ARIN can easily look into, the SP is much better placed to take action. But its a gray area between the two.

I have a level 3 circuit with BGP. Level 3 set me up a maintainer. To communicate with this program I just send an email to the maintainer, based on my email address and the maintainer name it will allow the route I request advertisement. I don't believe any one monitors this system and I would imagine if no one complains about this company advertising hijacked routes to level 3 then it would be quite easy to advertise a network that has been abandon.
