The website related to the disputed domain name displays commercial links in relation to the Complainant’s activities (Steel) and provides Pay per Click” pages redirecting to competitors’ websites.\r\n\r\nOn 15 January 2014, the Complainant sent a cease-and-desist letter to the Respondent by email (brad.reesar@yahoo.com). The Respondent has not provided any response to this cease-and-desist letter. \r\n\r\nFinally, the Complainant states that the Respondent is not affiliated with the Complainant. Furthermore, the Complainant did not grant any licence or authorization to the Respondent to make any use, or apply for registration of the disputed domain name.",

    "rights": "The Complainant has, to the satisfaction of the Panel, shown the Domain Name is identical or confusingly similar to a trademark or service mark in which the complainant has rights (within the meaning of paragraph 4(a)(i)of the Policy).\r\n\r\nThe Panel is satisfied that the disputed domain name <arcelornnittal.com> is confusingly similar to the Complainant's trademark <ArcelorMittal>. Merely replacing the “M” in the Complainant's mark <ArcelorMittal> with a double “N” does not sufficiently change the overall impression of confusing similarity. ",
    "no_rights_or_legitimate_interests": "The Complainant has, to the satisfaction of the Panel, shown the Respondent to have no rights or legitimate interests in respect of the Domain Name (within the meaning of paragraph 4(a)(ii)of the Policy).\r\n\r\nIn the absence of any explanation from the Respondent, it is not possible to conclude that it has any rights or legitimate interests in the Domain Name. ",
    "bad_faith": "The Complainant has, to the satisfaction of the Panel, shown the Domain Name has been registered and is being used in bad faith (within the meaning of paragraph 4(a)(iii)of the Policy).\r\n\r\nNumerous panels have confirmed that the use of misspellings in domain names also indicates bad faith registration. \r\n\r\nFurthermore, the website in relation to the disputed domain name <arcelornnittal.com> provides “Pay per Click” pages linked with the Complainant’s activities and redirecting to competitors’ websites. The Panel therefore finds that the Respondent additionally registered the disputed domain name with the intention of targeting the Complainant’s trademark for the purpose of disrupting the Internet traffic and takes a profit with the commercial links.",
