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 75%· claude-opus-5-5

The name 'esmicrosoft.best' squats on the Microsoft brand on a cheap .best TLD, registered via retail registrar Dynadot with self-hosted vanity nameservers, none of which fits a real Microsoft registration. The only content is an Azure Front Door 'configuration not found' 404 with no form, so this is a staged brand-squat rather than a live phish.

First passlooks like abusetarget: Microsoftconfidence 85%· claude-haiku-4-5

Domain esmicrosoft.best is a typosquat on Microsoft with no legitimate content—it displays an Azure Front Door placeholder error page. The domain name impersonates Microsoft, custom nameservers are configured under the typosquat domain itself, and the page's sole purpose appears to be deceiving visitors into believing they are on a Microsoft/Azure service, making this a brand squat rather than an active phishing site at this moment.
