The Complainant is the owner of the VIVID SEATS trademark, used in Canada prior to the Domain Name registration in 2009. The Respondent, known to the competitor because it was involved in fraudulent ticket sales through a vendors account created on the Complainant’s website, did not respond to the Complaint.
The Panel found that the Domain Name was registered in bad faith because the Domain Name was being used to redirect visitors to competing ticket selling websites, with no explanation as to how this could be accomplished in good faith.
