    "factual_background": "FACTS ASSERTED BY THE COMPLAINANT AND NOT CONTESTED BY THE RESPONDENT:\r\n\r\nThe disputed Domain Name contains the Complainant's ECCO trade mark as the first and most dominant element. It then contains some descriptive words: ONLINE, SALE, and USA (prior to the .com suffix).  Therefore, the disputed Domain Name is confusingly similar to the Complainant's trade mark(s) (Policy, Par. 4 (a)(i)).\r\n\r\nThe Respondent has no rights in the ECCO trade mark, and use of the trade mark ECCO by the Respondent has never been authorised by the Complainant. Further, the Respondent is using the website attached to the Domain Name to promote the sale of unauthorised ECCO branded goods. Accordingly, the Respondent has no rights or legitimate interests in respect of the Domain Name (policy, Par. 4 (a)(ii)).\r\n\r\nThe Complainant’s logo and images have been copied direct from the Complainant's website. These images are being used by the Respondent on the website attached to the Domain Name without the Complainant's authority. The Respondent is attempting to divert Internet users by creating a likelihood of confusion with the Complainant’s ECCO trade mark. In this regard, the Complainant has received customer complaints referring to the website attached to the Domain Name as 'fake'. In addition the Respondent may be exploiting the goodwill attached to the Complainant's trade marks for phishing purposes. \r\n\r\nThe WHOIS information provided by Respondent is very likely to be false. \r\n\r\nThe Complainant asserts that, in the circumstances, the disputed Domain Name was registered and is used in bad faith (Policy, Par. 4(a)(iii)).  \r\n\r\nThe Complainant refers to previous CAC and WIPO decisions in support of its Complaint.\r\n\r\nCAC:\r\nCase no. 100259, ECCOSHOESSHOP.COM\r\nCase no. 100278, ECCOSHOESUK.NET\r\nCase No. 100311, UKECCOSHOES.NET\r\nCase No. 100305, ECCOONLINESALE.COM\r\nCase No. 100312, ECCOSALEONLINE.COM\r\n\r\nWIPO:\r\nCase no.

In this regard the descriptive words contained in the Domain Name are in English and the website attached to the Domain Name is in English (including the customer service details provided on the website). According to the website attached to the Domain Name, the contact address is Hawkinsville, Georgia, USA.  For all these reasons it must be assumed that the Respondent is proficient in English.",
