You may... you may not. If you don't its definitely a hijack. If you did
and you were able to prevent it, its not a hijack. It really depends on
the registrar I think.
As far as cancelling domains purchased with jacked credit cards...
Verisign doesn't get a refund from ICANN or whoever if the domain is
cancelled after the first two weeks or something... so why should
Verisign cancel the domain when it helps their total-domains-registered
rankings and THEY had to pay for it.
