Why? AfriNIC is not located in the EU and does not solicit business with EU persons. AfriNIC is not, by my reading, subject to the GDPR. Even if they were, AfriNIC did not violate GDPR here. Wafa might have, but I don’t think she is subject to GDPR, either. Last I looked, Tunisia was outside EU jurisdiction. > I don't know if those emails come from whois or something else, but some logs > may tell.

I think the far more important issue here is the message sent under color of authority which authority likely was not authorized to Wafa at the time.
