    "factual_background": "FACTS ASSERTED BY THE COMPLAINANT AND NOT CONTESTED BY THE RESPONDENT:\r\n\r\nThis is a case of \"Typosquatting“, because the disputed domain name contains an obvious misspelling of the Complainant’s trademark. Previous panels have found that the slight spelling variations does not prevent a disputed domain name from being confusingly similar to the complainant’s trademark. Reference is made to prior UDRP case:\r\n-\tCAC – 101900 – REMY COINTREAU v. F0rbo - <remy-coiintreau.com> (“The disputed domain name is confusingly similar to the Complainant's trademark REMY COINTREAU® as it contains a misspelling of the Complainant’s trademark REMY COINTREAU® with the addition of the letter “I” in the word “COINTREAU” which is not sufficient to prevent likelihood of confusion. Nor is the addition of a gTLD such as “.com“ sufficient to avoid such confusion.”).\r\n\r\nThe disputed domain name was used to pass off as the Complainant in order to further a phishing scheme. Using a confusingly similar domain name to pass off as a complainant can evince a failure to make a bona fide offering of goods or services or a legitimate noncommercial or fair use. See Mortgage Research Center LLC v. Miranda, FA 993017 (Forum July 9, 2007) (“Because [the] respondent in this case is also attempting to pass itself off as [the] complainant, presumably for financial gain, the Panel finds the respondent is not using the <mortgageresearchcenter.org> domain name for a bona fide offering of goods or services pursuant to Policy paragraph 4(c)(i), or a legitimate noncommercial or fair use pursuant to Policy paragraph 4(c)(iii).”).\r\n\r\nThe disputed domain name is used for a parking site with commercial ads and sponsored links redirecting to websites offering goods and services of various types. The Respondent attempts to attract Internet users by creating a likelihood of confusion with the Complainant’s trademark.  See WIPO Case No. Case No. D2017-2003, Association des Centres Distributeurs E. Leclerc - A.C.D Lec v. Milen Radumilo (“The Panel takes the view that the redirection of the disputed domain name, which is confusingly similar to Complainant's LECLERC trademark, by means of a typical typo-squatting to a generic PPC website in order to generate pay-per-click revenues without Complainant's permission to do so, is a clear indication that Respondent intentionally attempted to attract, for commercial gain, Internet users to his own website, by creating a likelihood of confusion with Complainant's LECLERC trademark as to the source, sponsorship, affiliation or endorsement of Respondent's website. Such circumstances are evidence of registration and use of the disputed domain name in bad faith within the meaning of paragraph 4(b)(iv) of the Policy.”).",
