Hi, I made a little Python script that can help you find newly registered potential scam websites
- Go to Newly Registered Domains | Get All Lists For Free or https://nrd-list.com/downloads/ (You’re going to have to change the file name to “domain-names.txt”) and download any .zip/.txt file from the last 4 days with tons of newly registered domains (nrd-list.com has way more)
then put the .txt file in a folder - Download the python file to the same folder
- Run the python file in Terminal with “python3 websitefilterer.py” (check that you have python3 installed)
- If everything is correct, it will ask you for keywords to filter out websites, to find some scam websites I recommend using keywords like “microsoft,support,windows,247,tech,apple,paypal,amazon,office,” and so on
It will now generate and open an html file with a list of the links, at the top is also a button which chooses and opens websites randomly. Most of the websites will be down/not yet set up, though.
I have found a couple pop-up scams and mostly phishing scams with this tool
(You may want to use a VPN, especially if you’re not located in the US)
I hope you like it! Please let me know if it helped you and if you have any feedback
