  • An arbitrator with the WIPO Arbitration and Mediation Center has awarded VerizoniPhone4S.com domain name to Verizon . Verizon filed a complaint with the WIPO Arbitration and Mediation Center on February 13,2012,asserting legal rights over the disputed domain name .The company owns many trademark registrations for the "Verzion" mark.Therefore,Verizon managed to demonstrate that the domain name is confusingly similar to its trademark.

    Moreover,Verizon contended and managed to demonstrate that the respondent registered and used the disputed domain name in bad faith :

    "Respondent is using Complainant’s goodwill and the reputation of the VERIZON mark to redirect Internet users for financial gain."

    "VERIZON is a coined mark. The VERIZON mark is inherently distinctive and fanciful and entitled to broad protection due to its commercial strength. Given the well-known status of the mark, and Respondent’s use of the mark to create initial interest confusion in order to drive Internet traffic to its site for commercial benefit, this Panel finds it inconceivable that Respondent was not aware of Verizon and its international business."

    The Panel ordered the disputed domain name to be transferred from the respondent to the complainant.
