This certainly could disrupt the Complainant’s business in contravention of paragraph 4(b)(iii), but even if it does not, it is certainly an attempt to divert the Complainant’s potential customers to a rival website, which is a clear contravention of paragraph 4(b)(iv). ...

D2002-1099 (domain name similar to Complainant’s mark, which redirected traffic to an on-line pharmacy website selling Complainant’s and its competitor’s drugs, constitutes “no legitimate interests in the Domain Name...”).

D2000-0057. 6.3 Accordingly, the Panel exercises the broad discretion vested in it by Paragraph 4(f) of the Policy to consolidate the claims concerning the various domain names at issue. 6.4 Paragraph 15(a) of the Rules instructs the Panel as to the principles the Panel is to use in determining the dispute: "A Panel shall decide a complaint on the basis of the statements and documents submitted in accordance with the Policy, these Rules, and any rules and principles of law that it deems applicable." 6.5 Since both the Complainant and Respondent are domiciled in the United States, and since United States’ courts have recent experience with similar disputes, to the extent that it would assist the Panel in determining whether the Complainant has met its burden as established by Paragraph 4(a) of the Policy, the Panel shall look to rules and principles of law set out in decisions of the courts of the United States. 6.6 Paragraph 4(a) of the Policy directs that the Complainant must prove each of the following: 1) that the domain name registered by the Respondent is identical or confusingly similar to a trademark or service mark in which the Complainant has rights; and, 2) that the Respondent has no legitimate interests in respect of the domain name; and, 3) the domain name has been registered and is being used in bad faith. 6.7 The domain names at issue include names which are identical or confusingly similar to the service marks in which the Complainant has rights (e.g., "yahoosearch.com", "yahoonews.com"). 6.8 Moreover, the majority of the others consist of typographical error variations and misspellings of the Claimant's trademarks (e.g., "yyahoo.com" and "geosities.com"). 6.9 Respondent is obviously engaging in "typosquatting," a practice that has been condemned and been found to be confusingly similar to the marks which they mimic. ...
