Re:Show HN: How good are you at spotting lookalike domains? by awillen on Saturday January 18, 2020 @09:48PM (#22089037)
The problem with this is that when you do it, you're actively looking for lookalike domains. The challenge is when an email or link otherwise seems very legitimate, so you have your guard down.

yes. very much this! it's harder to spot a fake domain when subdomains and browser shenanigans are involved when writing an email for example than when a game called "spot the fake" is played.
