In this regard, the Panel, similar to previous UDRP decision, finds that the Disputed Domain Name is confusingly similar to the Complainant’s marks because it incorporates both of the Complainant’s marks in their entirety and the addition of a hyphen is insufficient to distinguish the Disputed Domain Name from the Complainant’s marks (see, e.g., Sony Ericsson Mobile Communications AB, Telefonaktiebolaget LM Ericsson, Sony Corporation v. Aylin Dzhelilova,
WIPO Case No. ...It is well established that the addition of a number and/or a hyphen after a distinctive trademark does not prevent confusing similarity, thus, in the Panel’s view, the addition of the said number and hyphen does nothing to distinguish the Disputed Domain Name from the FNAF trademark, nor to dispel confusing similarity, as it was found in previous UDRP decisions (see, e.g., Sony Ericsson Mobile Communications AB, Telefonaktiebolaget LM Ericsson, Sony Corporation v.

En casos
semejantes al presente estas actuaciones, consistentes en registrar de forma
indiscriminada nombres de dominio iguales o semejantes a marcas famosas ajenas,
han sido calificadas como “patrón de conducta” indicativo de mala
fe (Sony Kabushiki Kaisha also trading as Sony Corporation v. Inja, Kil,

Por todo ello, la Experta considera que también se cumple la tercera de las condiciones previstas por el Reglamento.

La Demandante solicita la cancelación del nombre de

dicho nombre de dominio incluye una marca que no le pertenece, por lo que la

Indeed it is difficult to imagine a use of Complainant’s marks,
given their distinction and famous nature, that would not suggest an affiliation
of some sort with Complainant. See Sony Kabushiki Kaisha (also trading as

According to the Complainant, the website screen captures on August 4 and November 17, 2010, show that the content of the website at the disputed domain name address consisted of targeted commercial links to third parties, identified as VOIP phone, Internet telephone and many others listed herein which indicate that the Respondent clearly targets the field of activities of the Complainant and its competitors and that such targeted commercial links cannot conceivably suggest a bone fide offering of goods or services. See e.g., Sony Ericsson Mobile Communications AB v. PD Hosting Inc.,
WIPO Case No. DPH2006-0001.
Finally, according to the Complainant, there is nothing to suggest that the Respondent has made any legitimate noncommercial or fair use of the disputed domain name which points to a website consisting of a parking page on which the Internet visitors will find many targeted links to third party commercial websites including the activities of the Complainant and its competitors and from which the Respondent is undoubtedly earning revenue via click-through links resulting from the confusion between the disputed domain name and the Trademark SKYPE of the Complainant.
...The Panel agrees with the views stated by the panel in the UDRP decision Sony Ericsson Mobile Communications AB, supra, which held that the presence and use of such commercial links cannot conceivably suggest a bona fide offer of goods and services which finding this Panel agrees with and adopts.

A descriptive element cannot remove the overall impression made on the public by a trademark which is the dominant part of the domain name (Sony Kabushiki Kaisha (also trading as Sony Corporation) v. Inja, Kil,

Further, it is well-established that in considering whether a disputed domain name is identical or confusingly similar to a registered trademark, the Top-Level Domain (for example, “.com” and “.net”) may be disregarded (GA Modefine SA v. Yonghui Huang,

WIPO Case No. D2000-1409, where the respondent registered a number of domain names incorporating a well-known trademark in its entirety, the panel stated, ‘that it is inconceivable that the respondent could make any active use of the disputed domain names without creating a false impression of association with the complainant’.” ...

In such a circumstance, this combination of the words "chevyextendedwarranty" is confusingly similar to the mark CHEVY. As stated by the Panel in Sony Kabushuki Kaisha v. Inja, Kil,

Taking in to account the above, added to the absence of participation in the proceeding of the Respondent, it is the Panel’s view that the Respondent’s registration was made with knowledge of the Complainant’s mark, which further supports a finding of bad faith registration.

Numerous previous cases under the Policy have found that where a trademark is incorporated in its entirety within a domain name, the addition of a generic word will generally not distinguish that domain name from the trademark (see, for example, Sony Kabushiki Kaisha (also trading as Sony Corporation) v. Inja, Kil,
WIPO Case No. D2000-1409). In the Panel’s assessment, the dominant part of the disputed domain name is the Complainant’s trademark and not the word “built”. ...

A descriptive element cannot remove the overall impression made on the public by a trademark which is the dominant part of the domain name (Sony Kabushiki Kaisha (also trading as Sony Corporation) v. Inja, Kil,
WIPO Case No. D2000-1409). In addition, the Panel notes that the words “live” and “casino”, taken as a phrase, are used in the Complainants’ website URL and are descriptive of the services provided by the Complainants, such that this exacerbates the confusion between the disputed domain name and the First Complainant’s trademark.
