The domain name Patterns(.com) was stolen from Network Solutions in 2020. DNProtect was approached by the owner of the domain name to help recover their stolen domain name.

BizCN registrar refused to cooperate and return the domain name to the owner. Therefore, DNProtect turned to domain name attorney Daniel Prince to file a UDRP. The decision of the UDRP was to return the domain, as the domain was acquired by the respondent via "fraudulent means".

Thanks for sharing this news, it seems interesting and it shows some ways how to solve problems with stolen domains which unfortunately isn't such a rare practice anymore, as it has started happening more and more even to some less popular companies.

Awesome to hear that Bill! I hope more stolen premium domains are recovered similarly.
