BABYRUS Domain Complaint
Site registered by Victor Lashenko, a Ukrainian citizen. Site links to Casino On Net.
In March, 2000, the Complainant became aware that the BABYRUS.COM name was being used in connection with a series of gambling web sites. When an Internet user, attempting to access the BABIESRUS.COM web site, mistakenly enters BABYRUS.COM in the command line of a web browser (misspelling the domain name), the user is not taken to the web site for BABIESRUS.COM. Instead, the user is diverted to the "Best of the Web.Com" web page (which provides links to a variety of products and services, none of which are related to "babies from Russia" or to BABIES "R" US, BABIESRUS.COM, TOYS "R" US, or TOYSRUS.COM).
Upon reaching the "Best of the Web.Com" web site, the user, is immediately presented with a pop-up dialog box promoting gambling and encouraging the user to enter on-line casino gambling sites. The pop-up dialogue box reads: "CONGRATULATIONS!!! YOU’VE WON = FREE CASINO GAME = +20% Bonus for real money play!". After clicking "OK" within this dialogue box, the user is then taken to a series of gambling web pages: (1) Casino on Net, or (2) 20% Bonus (on your first deposit).
The contested domain name registration was in the name of "Private", with Mr. Alex Vorot listed as the administrative and technical contact. A copy of the printout of the WhoIs database search conducted on July 5, 2000 shows Mr. Alex Vorot as the administrative and technical contact.
According to the WhoIs search conducted on July 27, 2000, as of July 24, 2000, Mr. Alex Vorot changed the Registrant of BABYRUS.COM from Private to Russian Baby. The Registrant’s address remains the same at Parkovaya Str. 12a-24, Moscow, Russia. The administrative and technical contact was changed from Mr. Vorot to Mr. Uevgeniy Sleptcov of DomainHost. The change was made only after communications took place between the Complainant and Mr. Vorot.
