Does anyone know who these people are? - I've seen their website, but I'm none the wiser. They say they've been operating since 1998, but their domain was registered less than 3 weeks ago. Their servers are pointing to a russian country code domain. I've started getting the following emails from them today:
International Domain Name Registry (IDNR) has received an application for registration of the domain xxxxxx.com; by a third party, that is almost identical to your domain name xxxxxx.org .
International Domain Name Registry was founded for registration, control and monitoring of domain names and trade marks that include copyright control, fair business regulations, legitimate usage and activity,
dispute and claim consideration of property breach of the domain for transfer to the court.
Registration of the domain name similar to your own can be done for the reasons mentioned below:
1. The third party wants to use the domain name for any purposes, including business, distinct from your business activity.
2. The third party wants to register the domain name for creation of a business similar to yours.
3. The third party (that, probably, before registration of a domain name was your competitor also) wants to disrupt the business of a competitor, or intentionally attempt to lure the customers of another business
by creating a confusingly similar Web address.
Consequently, it is our opinion that this application may have been submitted in bad faith.
You are required to submit to us your opposition to the third party domain name registration contemplated herein and expressly advise us of your intent to license this domain name (go to www.diregistry.com, choose "register a domain" then "block the
application of the third party") prior to the expiration of this notice (which is one working day after it is sent) or licensing rights to the domain name would be assigned to any applicant. In this case IDNR WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR THE LOSS OF DOMAIN NAME
IDENTICAL OR CONFUSINGLY SIMILAR USE OF YOUR COMPANY"S NAME; OR INTERRUPTION OF BUSINESS ACTIVITY OR BUSINESS LOSSES.
Also IDNR further will not consider your complaint to infringement of your rights for
IDENTICAL OR CONFUSINGLY SIMILAR USE OF YOUR COMPANY"S NAME; OR INTERRUPTION OF BUSINESS ACTIVITY OR BUSINESS LOSSES.
Thank you.
