Facebook filed a lawsuit today against Compsys Domain Solutions Private Ltd, an Indian provider of proxy/privacy services, for registering domains that impersonate Facebook apps and were allegedly used for malicious purposes.

According to the social network's IP Litigation Director and Associate General Counsel Christen Dubois, Compsys did not respond to any requests to clarify their intents.

This lawsuit was filed by Facebook "to prevent fraud and stop the malicious use of our company and product names."
