New Delhi: Social networking site Facebook has filed a lawsuit against a company in India. The company alleges that the Mumbai-based company used the name Facebook, which appears to be a case of fraud. The company is accused of using 12 such domain names.

A lawsuit has been filed against a Mumbai-based company in a Virginia court, according to a statement issued by Facebook.

 Experts in the case said that the Indian company has registered the domain name with the same name as Facebook. These include sites such as Facebook-verify-inc.com, Instagramhjack.com and VideoCall-Whatsapp.com.
