  1. Phishing Trends: February 2026 – April 2026

    We observed decreases in overall phishing attacks reported, unique domain names reported for phishing, and phishing attacks hosted at free or cheap web site services. But not all good news. Other stories:

  2. @jeroengui : I very much appreciate your work, but, as a bullet proof proxy service, #CloudflareIsEvil - they're complicit to cybercrime.

    Cloudflare warns for malware/phishing for a specific *URL*, not the domain.

    A minor change in the adds (or a forwarding site if that is what these scammers use) would bypass Cloudflare's crap measure.

    I never saw a malware/phishing warning while opening:

    https:⧸⧸keepass-xc.com/index.php

    Note: I understand that blocking https:⧸⧸sites.google.com for a single malicious page would be problematic, but that's rather due to the fact that Google Sites sucks.

    We forget, what is your position on CloudFlare? A lot of sites are "fake Russian" and actually go through #CloudFlare.

    A good way to find #fakeSites or sites that allow #massSurviellance, is to use Ctrl+Shift+E in TorBrowser. CloudFlare sites have "cf-ray" in their HTTP responses, #Amazon have "amz" or "AmazonS3". The #AkamaiGhost and Azure are centralised scams.

    Lots of #malware as a service on the #legacyInternet.
