  • Live and mail checks did not yet cover this week; they cover lookalikes first seen from 17 September 2026.
  • Takedown tracking did not yet cover this week; it began on 24 September 2026.
  • 2,182 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.

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.

  • uenno[.]com, a homoglyph of Venmo. A homoglyph first seen on 11 Jun.

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.
