Hi - I’ve got an issue where I own [example.com](http://example.com) but when trying to add the [okta.example.com](http://okta.example.com) to my current tenant I’m getting the ‘The specified domain name already exists and was verified by another org’ error. I can see in the \_oktaverification DNS record for my domain, and I can see the CNAME pointing to what I imagine is a dev org. I don’t have access to the dev org, but I own the domain - do I have any recourse here?
