What a gimmick. Know the UPCI stands for certain standards, and purposely put opposite on a domain name easily mistaken as official UPCI, and then have the UPCI pay bigtime to get the domain name. Suppose?

Common practice and likely not a deliberate thing. Deliberate persecution anyhow. When a domain expires
especially if it is regestered by a domain company in the pacific rim, it goes into a 3 month cycle before oblivion. The original opwner has about a month to reclaim it, then it goes into a 2 month holding pattern where no-one can claim it.
During that three month period the registrar will point it to a monitized ad site with ads that generally are close to the domain names topic. Right now there may be a hundred or more domians pointing to that page.
Speculators who purchase the domain name as soon as it becomes available again will do likewise. However on their pages there will usually be a "This domain is for sale" link.
It is nothing personal, just business, in both cases.
