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: Scotiabankconfidence 80%· claude-opus-5-5

The name pairs the distinctive bank brand "scotiabank" with "admin". It was registered through NICENIC with DNSPod nameservers, which is not Scotiabank's own infrastructure, and it serves only a bare nginx 404 with no content. That makes it a brand-squat whose only plausible use is deception, though no phishing page is live yet.

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

Domain name 'scotiabankadmin.com' is a clear typosquat of Scotiabank with 'admin' suffix suggesting impersonation of administrative/backend access. Currently returns a 404 placeholder, but the registration via NICENIC (a bulk-registration facilitator) combined with the brand-squatting name pattern indicates preparation for phishing infrastructure rather than legitimate use.
