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: CIBCconfidence 72%· claude-opus-5-5

The name joins the distinctive Canadian bank brand 'cibc' with the banking-lure phrase 'smartalerts'. It currently serves only an nginx 404 with no content or form, which fits a brand-squat staged for alert-themed phishing rather than a live phishing page. Nothing ties it to CIBC's own infrastructure.

First passsuspicioustarget: CIBCconfidence 72%· claude-haiku-4-5

Domain name contains CIBC (Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce) and 'smartalerts' terminology commonly used in banking security notifications, but returns only a 404 with no content. The combination of a major bank's name and alert-related keywords in the domain suggests preparation for phishing, but the absence of any actual page content (no form, no branding, no impersonation visible) means the attack infrastructure is not yet active or this is a squat.

A model looked at the screenshot and page text and wrote what it thought. It can be wrong, and it is not a finding.
