Progressive lookalike domains
Greyphish has recorded 298 domains that resemble Progressive since February 2026, 39 of them in the last 90 days. Most of them (67%) are typosquats, a keystroke or two away from the real name. .com carries 81% of them, out of 32 endings in all. The pace has picked up, with 20 in the last 30 days against 2 in the 30 before. The busiest week began 4 May 2026, with 18 new ones. 10 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 234 with a registrar in WHOIS (79% 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.
