The Complainant is a leading European supplier of post-trading services. It is a wholly owned subsidiary of Deutsche Börse AG. Over 300,000 domestic and internationally traded bonds, equities, and investment funds are currently deposited with the Complainant. The Complainant maintains relationships with customers in over 110 countries. Its global network extends across 60 domestic markets. The Complainant's official website is available at \"clearstream.com\".<\/p>\n

The disputed domain name <clearstream-global.pro> was registered on June 24, 2026, and is being used to send e-mails using the address \"compliance@clearstream-global.pro\". In the e-mails, the sender pretends to be the Complainant's Compliance Management Team and requests a copy of the recipient's ID card as well as documentation of deposits made. The footer of the e-mail includes the Complainant's company name along with its stylized and colored official logo. On July 20, 2026, the Luxembourg Commission de Surveillance du Secteur Financier published a warning identifying the e-mail address used by the Respondent as an e-mail address used by unknown persons impersonating the Complainant. On July 22, 2026, the disputed domain name <clearstream-global.org> was registered with the same registrar. Both domain names use the same hosting provider for website and e-mail services.<\/p>", "other_legal_proceedings": "

COMPLAINANT:<\/b><\/p>\n

The Complainant contends that the disputed domain names are confusingly similar to the Trademark, as they contain the Trademark in its entirety and descriptive or generic additions to a trademark do not prevent a finding of confusing similarity.<\/p>\n

Furthermore, the Complainant contends that the Respondent has no rights or legitimate interests in the disputed domain names. In this regard, the Complainant states that the parties have never had any previous relationship, that the Respondent has not been authorized, licensed, or otherwise permitted by the Complainant to use any of its trademarks—including permission to use the trademark CLEARSTREAM as part of the disputed domain names—and that the Respondent is not commonly known by the disputed domain names.<\/p>\n

Finally, the Complainant contends that the disputed domain names were registered and are being used in bad faith. In this regard, the Complainant contends that the Respondent is using the disputed domain name to send fraudulent phishing emails and is deliberately targeting the Complainant, which is evidence of bad faith registration. As to bad faith use, the Complainant argues that the Respondent's fraudulent activities in connection with the disputed domain name \"clearstream-global.pro\" clearly constitute bad faith. As to \"clearstream-global.org\", the Complainant argues that even if this domain name is not used in connection with active content or for sending e-mails, such passive holding constitutes bad faith in the present case. Furthermore, the Complainant argues that the Respondent's actions also constitute bad faith under paragraph 4(b)(ii) of the Policy, as the Respondent registered several domain names including the Trademark and has therefore engaged in a pattern of such conduct.<\/p>\n

Lastly, the Complainant requests the consolidation of the proceedings with regard to both domain names. It argues that the temporal proximity between the publication of the warning by the Luxembourg Commission de Surveillance du Secteur Financier and the registration of the second domain name, the identity regarding the registrar, hosting, and mail service providers, as well as the fact that the registrant information for both domain names contains the same defects (missing street number, non-existent phone numbers) and that both domain name holders use e-mail addresses from the same (unusual) e-mail service provider, leave no other conclusion than that both domain names are under common control.<\/p>\n

Paragraph 10(e) of the Rules grants a panel the power to consolidate multiple domain name disputes. At the same time, paragraph 3(c) of the Rules provides that a complaint may <\/span><\/span>relate to more than one domain name, provided that the domain na<\/sup><\/source-footnote><\/span>mes are regist<\/sup><\/source-footnote><\/span>ered by the same domain name holder. When considering a complaint filed against multiple respondents, section 4.11.2 of the WIPO Overview 3.0 states that \"<\/span>panels look at whether (i) the domain names or correspondi<\/sup><\/source-footnote><\/span>ng websites are subject to common control, and (ii) the consol<\/sup><\/source-footnote><\/span>idation would be fair and equitable to all parties. Procedural efficiency would also underpin panel consideration of such a consolidation scenario.\"<\/span><\/p>\n

In light of the Complainant's request to consolidate the multiple Respondents, the Panel has concluded that the disputed domain names are indeed under common control for the following reasons:<\/p>\n
