    "factual_background": "FACTS ASSERTED BY THE COMPLAINANT AND NOT CONTESTED BY THE RESPONDENT:\r\n\r\nThe Complainant and its subsidiaries (collectively, \"PepsiCo\") is a leading global food and beverage company. PepsiCo owns the PEPSI brand, one of the world's most recognized consumer brands, which has been used for soft drinks since 1911 as a shortened version of the PEPSI-COLA mark that first denoted PepsiCo's soft drinks in 1898. PepsiCo also owns numerous registrations for PEPSICO both in standard characters (e.g., Mexican Reg. 950496, in Class 32) as well as with design elements covering a wide variety of goods.\r\n\r\nThe Respondent is not licensed or otherwise authorized to use PepsiCo's marks in any way, and PepsiCo has not given the Respondent permission to use its mark in any domain name. The pertinent WHOIS contact information does not resemble the disputed domain name, which is being used as a resource for a business e-mail compromise (BEC) scam, a sophisticated form of social engineering fraud targeting businesses and individuals who perform legitimate transfer-of-funds requests. \r\n\r\nThe disputed domain name was registered on October 21, 2019. That same day the Respondent sent an email, using a custom email address on the disputed domain name impersonating PepsiCo, to one of PepsiCo's vendors, attaching a PEPSICO Electronic Payment Trading Partner Enrollment Form and instructing the vendor to fill it out and send it back with sensitive banking details under a purported PepsiCo vendor management updating process. \r\n\r\nThe disputed domain name is also being used to host content advertising NameCheap's commercial services and that the disputed domain name has been set up in the DNS.\r\n\r\n \r\n",
