Someone tried to phish me through a Whois relay. I don’t even have a contact form on my site, so they had to crawl in through the back window like a drunk raccoon. The message pitched “business opportunities” from a domain that looked like it was registered on a borrowed phone in a parking lot.
Their hosting setup had the charm of a digital motel that rents by the hour. It was classic bulletproof hosting with permissive routing policies, anonymized registration layers, and an uptime profile that survives only by ignoring every signal of malicious activity. Perfect for scammers and terrible for everyone else.
I’ll run a reverse lookup on the ASN and see which other dumpster fires this domain is orbiting.
Phishing is evolving. The creativity is not.
To them I say:
Thank you for the content, comrades.
