Signals, not verdicts. A domain appears here because heuristics matched its name, its infrastructure or the page it served on its first day. Where a model has looked at it, that is shown as an opinion with a confidence, not as a finding. Nothing on this page says a site is malicious. Read the evidence and decide for yourself.

Model opinions

Second opinionlooks like abusetarget: Microsoftconfidence 80%· claude-opus-5-5

The name pairs the distinctive Microsoft brand with the credential lure word "auth" on a domain Microsoft does not own. Yet the page is an unrelated fishing blog ("The Quiet Angler") with no form, which fits a brand-squat behind a decoy page rather than active phishing.

First passlooks benignconfidence 95%· claude-haiku-4-5

The domain name contains 'auth-microsoft' which triggered the scorer, but the page is a genuine fishing blog titled 'The Quiet Angler' with no Microsoft branding, no login form, and no attempt to impersonate Microsoft. The content is substantive and topical (fishing tackle and technique), indicating a legitimate personal blog that happens to use a domain name with brand words in it—a common and benign occurrence.
