It's not so much a questions on RIPE's strong suit, but more the LIRs, that don't keep their info updated.
RIPE only updates the basic data, to match it the contract data, but they're quite adament about updated data, if you want further allocations, which now sort of again is ... void.
Specifically, bgp.he.net is reporting the name associated with AS47860 as "Albino, LLC", but personally, I have no idea where they are getting that name from. (And it sure doesn't look like a European style of company name... rather more American, I think.)
I reckon .. but this is a guestimate, that the AS and prefix probably was allocated to that company in the past, but either their contract never was finalised or their contract was cancelled by one of the parties.
So that might have been the name that "used" to be in the whois database for that prefix and ASN, but now isn't anymore, if the entity has ceased to exist.
That could also be the reason, why the prefix and ASN have been seen historically.
Either way ... that's a guestimate, but a very plausable one. Only somebody inside RIPE would be able to shed more light into, what actually happened. If they're actually permitted (could be prevented by data protection).
