Bloomberg, the financial publication headquartered in New York City, witnessed its brand being dragged into a mini-scandal recently.
An impostor web site, operating from the domain name Bloomberg.Market, created a rudimentary copycat homepage, and then launched a fake press release.
The news about a supposed sale of Twitter for billions spread quickly, temporarily pushing up the price of Twitter’s publicly traded stock by as much as 8%.
The real Bloomberg Business.
In the days that followed, Rightside, managers of the dot .Market gTLD, shut down the domain citing violations of terms and conditions.
It has now come to our attention that a UDRP was filed at the National Arbitration Forum, against the offending domain Bloomberg.Market.
The UDRP was filed today, and the process has resulted in the revealing of the registrant, potentially opening the gates for further litigation.
