What probably happened is the service you used to check the domain was
available registered that same domain based on the information you
entered. It's illegal but pretty common. Good luck fighting that. The
morale of the story is whenever you want to look up a domain name with
the intent of registering it, only do so using a reputable service
that will not register it before you.
