I have a .uk and this French firm sent a C&D letter and is trying to claim "that I fraudulently registered it".
The company does own the .com version of it -- however they have no trademark for the domain itself in the UK. They do however own a trademark for "COMPANY" though I have "COMPANY[EXTRA]"
They talk about they own an American trademark, an EU Community trademark, French trademark and International trademark for "COMPANY" but they don't own any trademark for "COMPANY[EXTRA]".
They aren't a huge company, but I know that the French attitude is very bullying... I know straight off from the "fraudulenty registered it" claim that they are just trying to frighten me...
Any advice apart from deleting the domain?
