Appeared in the .com zone on Tuesday, October 20, 2026; by the end of that day the census found redirects elsewhere. Full domain report

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

The name pairs the WhatsApp brand with 'sysauth', which reads like account-verification phishing lure language. It serves no content of its own and redirects to the unrelated www.yahoo.com, a common cloaking pattern for a staged phish domain, so it is a WhatsApp brand-squat (the Yahoo form belongs to Yahoo, not this domain).

First passlooks like abuseconfidence 92%· claude-haiku-4-5

Domain 'sysauth-whatsapp.com' is a WhatsApp brand-squat with 'sysauth' (system authentication) prefix, using hostile nameservers (xundns.com), and redirects to Yahoo's homepage—a classic redirect-to-legitimacy deception tactic. The domain name itself signals impersonation intent (WhatsApp system auth), though the redirect obscures the phishing infrastructure.
