iQ Risk Alert Reports

Highlighting potentially malicious domain name patterns

November 5, 2024

Across Multiple TLDs: Yes (4)

Pattern: The domains consistently use variations and misspellings of "google" as their base, followed by seemingly random letter combinations or words. This pattern suggests a malicious campaign targeting Google's brand name. The use of multiple TLDs  indicates an attempt to capture traffic across different domain extensions.

Sample Domains:

googleelplly
googleellly
googleeply
googleelply
googlekyxf
googleepaly
googleevip
googledleamo
googleyrkd
googlefiery

Note: This list is a snippet of a larger dataset and not exhaustive.

About this Data: This report was generated using advanced algorithms and techniques to identify patterns and anomalies indicative of malicious activity. While this data has been carefully analysed, it is possible that some domains may be false positives. For more info, visit https://iq.global/iq-risk-score

October 31, 2024

Across Multiple TLDs: Yes (2)

Pattern: The domains consistently use variations of "canadapost-postescanada" followed by one or more letters. They appear to be impersonating or targeting Canada Post, the country's primary postal operator. The use of both English "Canada Post" and French "Postes Canada" in the domain names suggests an attempt to appear legitimate to both English and French-speaking Canadians. This pattern could be indicative of a phishing campaign targeting Canadian postal service users.

Sample Domains:

canadapost-postescanadahg
canadapost-postescanadahk
canadapost-postescanadacg
canadapost-postescanadahu
canadapost-postescanadahs
canadapost-postescanadah
canadapost-postescanadaoi
canadapost-postescanadaca
canadapost-postescanadaew

October 25, 2024

Across Multiple TLDs: Yes (5)

Pattern: The domains consistently use variations of "lasereyesurgery" followed by numbers. They appear to be targeting individuals interested in or searching for information about laser eye surgery. The use of multiple TLDs  suggests an attempt to cast a wide net and potentially capture traffic across various domain extensions.

Sample Domains:

lasereyesurgery09
lasereyesurgery03
lasereyesurgery025
lasereyesurgery020
lasereyesurgery205
lasereyesurgery002
lasereyesurgery418
lasereyesurgery347

October 23, 2024

Across Multiple TLDs: Yes (2)

Pattern: The domains follow a consistent pattern of "newsi-october" followed by a number.  The combination of "newsi" (potentially short for "news") and "october" might suggest a campaign related to news or information distribution, possibly targeting a specific time period or event in October.

Sample Domains:

newsi-october179
newsi-october188
newsi-october187
newsi-october138
newsi-october158
newsi-october157
newsi-october186
newsi-october137

October 18, 2024

Across Multiple TLDs: No

Pattern: The domains follow a consistent pattern of "startup-business-" followed by a five-digit number. All domains use the .bond TLD, which may be an attempt to associate with financial instruments or investment opportunities. This pattern suggests a potential large-scale campaign targeting individuals interested in startup businesses or investments.

Sample Domains:

startup-business-92732
startup-business-98135
startup-business-92850
startup-business-22260
startup-business-30390
startup-business-35523
startup-business-50422
startup-business-63890
startup-business-78955

October 16, 2024

Across Multiple TLDs: Yes (4)

Pattern: The domains follow a pattern of "personal-loans" or "loans-personal" followed by numbers and occasionally a country code. They appear to be targeting individuals seeking personal loans, potentially for phishing or scam purposes.

Sample Domains:

personal-loans-6631
personal-loans-6661
personal-loans-4811239
personal-loans-78852
personal-loans-15042
personal-loans-70052

September 26, 2024

Across Multiple TLDs: Yes(7)

Pattern: The majority of domain names in this list appear to be typosquatting variations of "Netflix", a popular streaming service. These domains use slight misspellings or alterations of the Netflix brand name, which could be an attempt to deceive users into visiting fraudulent websites. Some domains incorporate additional words or letters that may be related to streaming or entertainment services.

Sample Domains:

netflox
netfllix
netfflix
netsflix
netfapx
netlix
netfilx
nettaflix
netflxsup
netfllx
lottox
netroflix

September 20, 2024

Across Multiple TLDs: No

Pattern: The domain names follow a consistent pattern of "click" followed by a 3-letter combination and ending with "wages". This pattern suggests a bulk registration of domains potentially related to a click-based wage or payment system. The use of similar domain structures could indicate an attempt to create multiple entry points for a website, possibly for affiliate marketing, or potentially for phishing purposes.

Sample Domains:

clickebwwages
clickdapwages
clickqhtwages
clicknxrwages
clickpiqwages
clickiwcwages
clickifwwages
clickftnwages

August 30, 2024

Across Multiple TLDs: No

Pattern: The domain names follow a consistent pattern of "pokerdom-casino-" followed by a 2-3 letter/number combination. This pattern suggests a bulk registration of domains related to the "Pokerdom Casino" brand. The use of various suffixes could indicate an attempt to create multiple entry points for a gambling-related website or potentially for phishing purposes.

Sample Domains:

pokerdom-casino-dap
pokerdom-casino-bop
pokerdom-casino-wep
pokerdom-casino-hup
pokerdom-casino-gep
pokerdom-casino-pik
pokerdom-casino-yep

August 22, 2024

Across Multiple TLDs: Yes (7)

Pattern: The pattern consists of 6-digit numbers (occasionally 5 or 7 digits) used as domain names. These numeric domains are registered across multiple TLD. The  volume of similar numeric domains suggests a coordinated, automated registration effort, which is often associated with potentially malicious activities. Registering the same numeric patterns across various top-level domains could be an attempt to create redundancy or evade blocking/filtering measures

Sample Domains:

684858
684867
684148
684589
684971
688658
