Dear Registrar,
We are contacting you on behalf of Pantera Capital. We manage Pantera Capital's Internet monitoring function and brand identity issues on the Internet. Recently, Pantera Capital became aware that a website that lists you as the sponsoring registrar is using Pantera Capitalβs intellectual property in the domain name without consent.
URL: http://pantera.capital.pro/ (please do not click on it as it is a spam site)
It is not Pantera Capital's policy to promote third party relationships or accept unsolicited promotion or allow any third party to use their Trademarks without proper internal review and formal acceptance. In our experience as well as historical evidence, such typosquatted domain names can be used for malicious purposes against Pantera Capital. As there is no apparent purpose that exists for the registration of the domain name, we would like to ensure that it will not be used fraudulently.
We request that a βclientHoldβ be placed on the above domain name or draw this issue to the attention of the appropriate persons to accomplish this task, in a timely manner.
Should you have any questions feel free to contact us at the information provided below.
Sincerely,

Please advise what to do, because if I remove it from the Sedo parking, will that solve the problem with Pantera.Capital.pro, to which I have no idea where it came from?
