Just click the Beautify button in postman or format the JSON in VSCode or use any JSON formatter in online.

In my case the white spaces (tab spaces before properties) had a special encoding, to solve the problem, just delete them and replace them with spaces:

Looks like the quote marks are not correct, maybe from copy and pasting from a specifically formatted document or syntax may be wrong.

Try removing/replacing manually or using this:

{
    "FirstName": "blah",
    "LastName": "blah",
    "UserName": "blah",
    "Password": "blah",
    "Email": "[email protected]"
}
