Examples

One per brand, written with [.] so they cannot be clicked. A lookalike resembles a brand; it is not necessarily malicious, and none of these is a claim about who registered it or why.

How this is counted

A week runs Monday to Sunday, UTC. Each domain is counted once, in the week Greyphish first saw it, and only for about 1,250 widely impersonated public brands: domains Greyphish customers watch, and anything derived from their watchlists, are excluded. The full method and caveats are on the live report.
