# Sweeping typosquat domains away from a SaaS brand

> Dozens of lookalike domains were redirecting traffic and staging phishing. Fraudox cleared the active set and set up ongoing monitoring.

**Sector:** Software & SaaS | **Threat:** Scam domain | **Region:** Global | **Client:** B2B SaaS company (anonymised)

| Measure | Result |

| Domains actioned | 37 |
| Median time to removal | 28h |
| Customer-reported scams since | 0 |

## The challenge

A SaaS brand found dozens of registered typosquats and homoglyph domains: some parked, some redirecting to competitors, and a handful staging phishing pages aimed at its customers. Left alone, the parked and redirecting domains were a standing risk that could be weaponised at any time.

## How it was handled

### 1. Triage by active risk

Domains were sorted into active phishing, redirecting, and parked. Active phishing was filed first as a priority; the rest were queued so nothing was missed.

### 2. Pursue removal at the registrar layer

Where domains were clearly abusive, we pursued suspension through registrar abuse channels rather than only chasing the hosted content.

### 3. Hand back a monitored watchlist

The remaining lookalikes were placed on a watchlist so newly weaponised domains are caught and filed early.

## Outcome

37 domains were actioned with a median time-to-removal of 28 hours for the active phishing set. Since the engagement, the customer has reported zero new domain-based scams reaching its users.

## The service behind this
