A Fashion Designer Philipp Plein filed a UDRP against Peopleincasinos.com and Supportpeopleinneed.org
Both of these sites featured clothing that they claimed was original Philipp Plein clothing.

Are these domains anyhow connected to Philipp Plein?

Check the domain names again:

PeoPLEINcasinos.com
SupportPoePLEINneed.org

Are these enough to pass the confusing similarity needed for UDRP?
The panelist denied the confusing similarity.
 
hi all,
newbie here. Does anybody know of any interesting domain names which are similar in name to some existing domains and are in similar/same industry.
 
o.k. I will take a similie here to get the point across. I'm sure you have all been to the Malls (Mall= big shop having huge variety of goods with various brands). Now let's say you want to buy a tea packet of a certain brand. I'm sure you have noticed the same as me that many a times the tea packet is either similarly colored, the packet uses same or similar design or has a play of words. The net effect is if the consumer/customer doesn't look at the label seriously he could buy packet from Brand B or Brand X while he thinks/thought is as Brand A.

I'm sure on the world wild web there are bound to be similar examples abound. There may be sites which satire around a given brand or product or are similar to existing brands.

Let me be clear I'm not talking about phishing sites or something like that (which I know are numerous as well) but sites which are grey morally, similar to the instance shared above. Even sites which satire a given brand or product would be good play as well.

Does my explanation make it clear enough or something is still not understood ?

My motive is to understand if there is existence of such sites (I'm sure they are) and perhaps try to figure out why people come there. Perhaps somebody might have done a study on it.

Either way, it would be fun. Looking forward to know if people know.
