Netflix lookalike domains
Greyphish has recorded 344 domains that resemble Netflix since February 2026, 87 of them in the last 90 days. Most of them (61%) are combosquats: Netflix spelled correctly with a word added, most often “online”, “support”, “update”. .com carries 69% of them, out of 44 endings in all. The pace is steady: 26 in the last 30 days, 28 in the 30 before. 4,585 certificates for unregistered .ph, .com.ph, .net.ph names (registry wildcard) are excluded: the registry answers for any name under those endings, so nobody had to register one to get a certificate for it.

Where they are registered
For the 215 with a registrar in WHOIS (63% of all). Brand-protection registrars mostly hold defensive registrations made by brands themselves, so a domain there is more likely the brand's own than an imitation.
