While testing flock.com I got a domain flock.co what is under flock company . So I stared looking at it's subdomains and got subdomain newdev.flock.co . When I visited the subdomain in browser I got a error like below screenshot :-

This took my attention . So I checked the DNS record for this domain .

From above record we can say the subdomain is pointing to CNAME cname.readme.io . So I start looking at custom domain documents on readme.io website to understand how they works . From their document I understand that :-

So to takeover I need to check if cname.readme.io is alreday claimed of not . But Unfortunately it was already claimed :( . But I have seen many such services doesn't force users to verify their ownership of domains by using same CNAME txt record like their service subdomain . So still there's a hope .
I opened a account in readme.io and I got a subdomain newdev.readme.io . Then I go to domains settings https://dash.readme.io/project/newdev/v1.0/domains and in Custom Domain Field used newdev.flock.co as value and save changes .
Now when I visited newdev.flock.co It redirected me to http://newdev.flock.co/inactive this page what saying now that Not Yet Active.

This is showing as I am using a trail account . In the webpage title you will see my project name what I used while creating the project . So now this domain is serving my contents from newdev.readme.io project page .

How to avoid such issues ? :- Always update your DNS records . remove CNAME or any other DNS records what is not in used .
