That's just hijacking.  That's what RPKI is about.
If Baddie Inc. got a transit provider to accept it, and didn't do RPKI, and
the provider didn't demand a letter of authorization, then really, it's on
the transit provider.

Owner of a.b.c/23 ought to have routing objects, ROA, etc. that says that
nobody is authorized to route it.  The database is correct, and the complaint
should be acted upon by doing something.  This where the poorly monitored
contact address matters so much.
