I recently disconnected my domain name from the web host for personal reasons, and when I went to reconnect it less than two weeks later I found that the domain was now being used by a casino website despite the fact that I still own the domain name and have sole access to the DNS records. How is this possible?

EDIT: It is also possible that your ISP is injecting the casino website for anything that doesn’t exist. You could confirm that by going to something like “thissiteisbogus.yahoo.com” in your web browser.
Go here and type in your domain name: [https://lookup.icann.org/en](https://lookup.icann.org/en)
This will tell you not only the list of authoritative nameservers registered for the domain, but who owns it. Based on what you’ve said, you probably don’t own it anymore. You need to talk to your registrar (the company you bought the domain name from). Have you tried logging into your registrar’s portal and checking on the domain name?
