They take the information that people bring to them for something they think is a record and try to verify/compare to other info they have.

How do you want them to track every record in the world? And especially for such random shit they track?

There a literally submissions they don’t allow people to keep resubmitting for. See: worlds oldest cat, it’s a paid for submission. If you have enough money to throw around you can have any number of bs records. If they were legitimate in any way why wouldn’t they allow other people to submit their old cats? Hmm? It’s almost like someone with an old cat paid for it and now no one else can try and out do it. Toooooootally legitimate.
