Phishing Domain

Definitions

1. A domain name registered or used to host phishing pages, redirect victims, or lend credibility to fraudulent communications. Phishing domains often mimic trusted brands, use lookalike spellings, or rotate quickly to stay ahead of takedowns and blocklists.

   Example: "The phishing domain swapped one character in the company's name and served a nearly identical login page."
