Typosquatting is a deceptive practice in which a person or entity registers a domain name that is intentionally similar to a popular or well-known website, with the intention of capitalizing on user errors or typos. This can include misspelling the website’s name, using a different top-level domain, or adding or omitting a letter or word. The goal of typosquatting is often to redirect unsuspecting users to a different website, potentially for malicious purposes such as phishing scams or to generate revenue through advertising. This practice can also be used to steal sensitive information or damage the reputation of the legitimate website. Typosquatting is a form of cyber-squatting and can be a serious threat to online security and trust.
