Fake Sites Are Getting Harder to Spot

Fraudulent websites impersonating your brand are more convincing than ever. Generative AI enables scammers to clone a website, replicate branding, and launch a fake page within minutes. Customers often cannot distinguish a fake site from the real one until after the damage is done.

BrandShield continuously monitors the web for fake sites, phishing domains, and lookalike pages using your brand name. Our AI maps the network behind each threat, enabling takedown of coordinated fraud at scale rather than isolated sites. Our enforcement team then works directly with registrars and hosting providers to remove them quickly.

Key Threats:

Phishing Sites

Fake login pages that mirror your official site to collect customer credentials, payment details, and personal information.

Lookalike Domains

Domains registered to closely resemble your brand’s URL, through a swapped letter, an added word, or an alternate extension — designed to capture customers who mistype or click a deceptive link.

Cloned Websites

Replicas of your website’s design and content, used to facilitate fraud, credential theft, and brand impersonation.

Fake eCommerce Stores

Fraudulent online stores use your brand name, logo, and imagery to sell counterfeit products or take payments without delivering anything at all.

Search Indexed Scam Sites

Fake sites are optimized to appear in search results for your brand name, intercepting customers who believe they are visiting your official website.

AI-Generated Fraud Sites

Using generative AI has made it much easier to craft convincing and tailored job postings, as well as build professional-looking websites in record timing.
