Sprint lookalike domains
Greyphish has recorded 259 domains that resemble Sprint since February 2026, 64 of them in the last 90 days. Most of them (62%) are combosquats: Sprint spelled correctly with a word added, most often “app”, “service”, “web”. .com carries 58% of them, out of 50 endings in all. The pace has picked up, with 34 in the last 30 days against 17 in the 30 before. The busiest week began 28 September 2026, with 12 new ones. 5 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.
