The same thing happens when space is allocated to one organisation but announced by another, and this can happen when a sub-company of a parent company is announcing space from their own ASN when the space was originally allocated to the parent.  As such, when reading this data, it's important to understand that the abnormalities detected do not necessarily indicate anything nefarious - and this data should not be seen as accusations of malfeasance against anyone.
