I did a quick look using asused, and it seem there are whois records - they are very generic and by /24, and the sum is:

I have no reason to believe currently that RIPE would treat Mr H.Lu any different from the rest, so I guess there is supporting evidence from the processing of those requests. I would like this matter to go back to RIPE, which due to this thread would be quite arrogant if NOT performing an audit. So perform an audit, and process this like any other reported ticket.

I can confirm Mr H. Lu was at RIPE65 in Amsterdam, and we did talk a bit during the social and he is "available" for talking.
Full-disclosure, I have not done business with him or know him more than this.  

and FWIW below are some show routes from our active core router.

I gather:
The networks ARE being announced on the internet, and I receive them from multiple providers
such as AS1299 Telia, AS174 Cogent so if this is a fraudulent network it at least has ISP's providing connectivity.

I did check the others, and you can perform your own investigations using RIPEstat?
