Lookalike domain report: July 13 to July 19, 2026
Domains that imitate widely used brands, first seen in Certificate Transparency logs and ICANN zone files during this week: how many, which brands, where they were registered and what the live ones did. Free to cite with a link.
Published . A stored snapshot: these figures do not change. This week so far.
- 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.
- 10,131 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.
Lookalikes per day
253 typosquats, 518 combosquats and 26 homoglyphs; 791 first seen in certificate logs and 6 in zone files. The week before had 1,209. Most were on .com (479), .org (18), .net (17), .com.cn (16).

Where they were registered
Registrar data is incomplete for this week, so the registrar ranking is left out: WHOIS covers 23% of its lookalikes.
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.
