That's an unethical and impotent strategy. Simply owning a domain without using it is not squatting. Having a trademark does not give you rights to someone else's property either. See Nissan Motors vs. Nissan.com.

The UDRP only allows you to take a domain for trademark infringement if:

a) the domain name is identical or confusingly similar to a trademark or service mark in which the complainant has rights; and

b) he/she has no rights or legitimate interests in respect of the domain name; and

c) the domain name has been registered and is being used in bad faith
