google içerikli domainin sakıncası var mı?

It has recently come to our attention that you have registered the domain name paypal****.net which mimics or contains the PayPal trademark. You are violating PayPal’s trademark rights and must cease doing so.

As you must know, PayPal, an eBay company, is the leading provider of online payment services. PayPal has used the name and trademark "PayPal" since 1999 and it is now one of the most famous brands in the world. PayPal enjoys broad trademark rights, which are protected in many countries around the world.

We are concerned that the use of paypal****.net infringes and/or dilutes the distinctive PayPal trademark or constitutes cybersquatting, in violation of PayPal’s legal rights. Infringement occurs when a third party’s use of a company’s trademark (or a similar variation) is likely to confuse consumers as to the affiliation, sponsorship, or endorsement of the third party’s services. Trademark dilution occurs when a third party’s use of a variation of a company’s trademark is likely to lessen the distinctiveness of the company’s famous trademark.

U.S. federal and state laws, including the Anticybersquatting Consumer Protection Act provides for serious penalties (up to $100,000 ) against persons who use, sell, or offer for sale a domain name that infringes or dilutes another's trademark. Infringers who have been notified that their use is infringing, but do not cease, may also be considered “willful” and could be subject to additional money damages and liability for attorney’s fees. Having received this email, you are on such notice.

While PayPal respects your right of expression and your desire to conduct business on the World Wide Web, PayPal must enforce its own rights in order to protect its valuable and famous name. We appreciate that you may have registered paypal****.net without full knowledge of the law in this area. Nonetheless, under the circumstances, we must insist that you stop using the domain name, not sell, transfer, or offer to sell the domain name to any other person, and simply let the domain name registration expire. You also must not register any other domain names that infringe the PayPal or eBay trademarks.

Please respond to this email and confirm that you will comply as requested. Thank you for your anticipated cooperation.

Sincerely,

Edith
eBay Legal Department
