It also edits « Propriétés de France », a real estate magazine.\r\n\r\nThe disputed domain name was registered on August 3, 2009. Shortly after a cease and desist letter from the Complainant dated December 20, 2011, the registration of the disputed domain name was transferred from the original registrant, Hoffman Schuler Foundation of Panama City, to the Respondent. Both prior to and after the transfer, the disputed domain name resolved to a website promoting a real estate agency called IRCA, offering identical services to those offered by the Complainant under its registered marks and displaying the message “Propriétés de France (Groupe Figaro) welcomes the partnership with IRCA Immobilier Ross & Crosmann Architecture” . When clicking on the tabs listed on the website, internet users are redirected to the website <www.irca.com> which presents the same layout, design and content as the website <www.propriétésdefrance.com>. \r\n\r\nThe Respondent has not been licensed or otherwise authorized to use any of the Complainant’s trademarks or to apply for or use any domain name incorporating such trademarks. \r\n\r\nIn response to communications from the Complainant to IRCA, a person claiming to be the sole representative of the owner of the disputed domain name offered it for sale to the Complainant.\r\n\r\nBy e-mail dated December 14, 2011 sent from the e-mail address <proprietesdefrance@propriétésdefrance.com> several of the Complainant's business partners were falsely informed that Propriétés de France (Groupe Figaro) have concluded a partnership with IRCA real estate agency. \r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n",
