On the other hand, if you are on the receiving end of a letter from a trademark owner about a domain you have bought, you may be somewhat baffled. The domain was available for you to buy, so what’s the problem, you may think. The problem is that it is up to you to first check that the domain you are buying does not interfere with the legitimate trademark rights of the trademark owner in the name. The fact that you are able to register a domain doesn’t mean you won’t get sued for having done so.

On the other hand, if you have registered a descriptive domain name that someone else claims rights over, you may find that it is not so simple for others to claim rights over generic names.
