The disputed domain name incorporates the ELECTROLUX mark in its entirety with the mere addition of the letter “r”, constituting a typical case of typosquatting. Such alteration does not prevent a finding of confusing similarity. The generic Top-Level Domain (“.com”) is to be disregarded.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n
The Respondent has no rights or legitimate interests in the disputed domain name. It is not affiliated with or authorised by the Complainant, holds no trademark rights in “elecrtrolux” or “electrolux”, and is not making any bona fide use. The disputed domain name is inactive, and its composition carries a high risk of implied affiliation.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n
The Respondent registered the disputed domain name with knowledge of the Complainant’s famous mark, engaging in typosquatting. Passive holding in combination with the mark’s reputation, privacy protection use, and MX record activation indicates bad faith under the Policy. The domain could be used for phishing or fraudulent purposes.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n
