Microsoft fights for domain name and wins it

Microsoft,the United States-based multinational computer technology corporation that develops, manufactures, licenses, and supports a wide range of software products for computing devices submitted a complaint to the National Arbitration Forum,requesting the domain name perumicrosoft.com to be transferred to them.

It is well known that Microsoft has many registrations of its "Microsoft" mark all over the word.Moreover,they have a registered the "Microsoft" mark even in Peru.
Therefore it's obvious that the respondent,Luis Enrique Varela Ponce ,has registered the disputed domain name knowing that is confusingly similar to Microsoft's trademark.
The disputed domain name resolves to a website,that even though seems to be under construction,does contain an advertisement for a company.Therefore the complainant contends that the respondent registered and used the domain name in bad faith.
Because the respondent failed to submit a response and because Microsoft managed to prove all the elements needed,the Panel decided the disputed domain name,perumicrosoft.com to be transferred from the respondent to the complainant.
