TREE NEWS reports: Security firm Island said on Nov. 12 it identified 186 domains impersonating 27 well-known AI brands, with ChatGPT the most copied at 25 lookalike domains, followed by Claude at 18, DeepSeek at 16 and Runway at 12. Some of the domains redirect users to advertising pages while others lead to malicious websites. The attackers use a technique dubbed “TypoPrompting,” exploiting users’ typos when entering AI tool URLs.
Security Firm Finds 186 Fake AI Domains Mimicking ChatGPT, Claude
AI take
The scale — 186 domains across 27 brands — shows impersonation has become an industrial pattern rather than isolated opportunism, and the branding of it as "TypoPrompting" signals attackers are now tailoring lures specifically to AI-tool habits. The targeting mix matters: the most-copied names are the most-consumed consumer and developer tools, so the exposure sits with everyday users rather than institutions with security teams. Whether these campaigns stay low-sophistication redirects or migrate toward credential capture is the open question worth tracking.
