Victoria's Secret wins victoriassecretzone.info domain name in arbitration

Victoria's Secret has recently won the victoriassecretzone.info domain name in Arbitration.


The company submitted a complaint to the National Arbitration Forum,requesting the disputed domain name to be transferred from the respondent to the complainant.
Victoria's Secret owns many registered trademarks for the "Victoria's Secret" mark.Therefore,they contended in the complaint that the disputed domain name is confusingly similar to its trademark.
Moreover,they contended that the respondent registered and used the domain name in bad faith .
"Respondent use of confusingly similar domain names to attract Internet users seeking Complainant’s services and then diverting them to third-party competing websites is evidence of bad faith registration and use ."
Because the respondent failed to submit a response in this proceeding and because the complainant managed to demonstrate all the elements needed,the Panel ordered that the victoriassecretzone.info domain name be transferred from respondent to complainant.
