I get occasional probes from Google services against my domain, clearly made by bad actors who are trying to break into it. It's not "lose your domain with a slip of the finger" territory, but it's still not great.

There doesn't appear to be a way to tell Google, "I own this domain, just block all of these bogus requests" other than signing up for the services in question (which I don't want to do!)

Scammers will be scammers, but this is also pretty shitty behavior on Google's part.
