Complainant contends, in relevant part, as follows:<\/p>\n
Paragraph 4(a)(i): Complainant states that the Disputed Domain Name is confusingly similar to the MELBET Trademark because the Disputed Domain Name incorporates the MELBET Trademark in its entirety, and “[t]he addition of ‘eg’ (designating Egypt) is a geographic indicator… and does not prevent a finding of confusing similarity under the UDRP.<\/p>\n
Paragraph 4(a)(ii): Complainant states that Respondent has no rights or legitimate interests in respect of the Disputed Domain Name because, inter alia<\/em>, “[t]he disputed domain name was registered after the filing of the first MELBET trademark and more than a decade after the MELBET mark had already been in commercial use since 2012”; “[t]he Complainant has not licensed or authorized the Respondent to register or use the disputed domain name, nor is the Respondent affiliated to the Complainant in any form”; “[t]here is no evidence that the Respondent is known by the dispute domain name or owns any corresponding registered trademarks”; “[t]he Respondent has not been using or preparing to use the disputed domain name in connection with a bona fide offering of goods and services, nor making a legitimate non-commercial or fair use of the disputed domain name without intent for commercial gain misleadingly to divert consumers or to tarnish the trademark or service mark at issue”; and the website using the Disputed Domain Name “is specifically targeted at users in Egypt and markets itself as ‘MELBET FOR PLAYERS FROM EGYPT’,” “extensively copies the Complainant’s branding, trade dress, and structure, including the color scheme, promotional offers, and site organization” and “offers the same services as the Complainant, including sports betting, casino games, and mobile applications, while purporting to be an official or authorized MELBET entity in Egypt.”<\/p>\nParagraph 4(a)(iii): Complainant states that the Disputed Domain Name was registered and is being used in bad faith because, inter alia<\/em>, “[t]he Respondent registered the disputed domain name many years after the MELBET brand was introduced in 2012 and after the first MELBET Trademarks were filed and registered”; “MELBET is a prominent online gambling and betting operator with a strong digital presence”; Respondent lost a previous proceeding under the UDRP, for the domain name <melbets-az.com>, Batnesto Ltd. v. Alex Voronov<\/em>, CAC Case No. UDRP-107057; the website associated with the Disputed Domain Name “closely mimic[s] the Complainant’s official website <melbet.com>,” which “is clearly intended to mislead Internet users into believing the [Respondent’s website] is affiliated with the Complainant.”<\/p>\nNo administratively compliant response has been filed.<\/p>\n
