Frequently Asked Questions

Are all .design websites scams?

No. The .design extension is not specifically high-risk, but it is still used by scammers. The TLD alone does not determine whether a specific domain is safe. Many legitimate sites use .design. This page lists only the specific .design domains flagged by threat-intelligence feeds — not the extension as a whole.

Why do scammers use .design domains?

Scammers favour cheap, fast-to-register extensions with slower abuse enforcement, because they expect the domain to be taken down within days. Registration cost and enforcement speed — not the extension's purpose — drive the choice.

How do I check if a specific .design site is safe?

Look it up here or on Google Safe Browsing and VirusTotal, and check its registration date with a WHOIS lookup. Very new domains imitating an established brand are a strong warning sign.
