Be Wary of Fake Pages and Phishing

Malicious actors often create fake pages that mimic legitimate websites to steal credentials[citation:10]. Be cautious of:

  • Pages with suspicious domains (e.g., *.pages.dev, *.workers.dev)[citation:3][citation:9]
  • Requests to paste PowerShell commands or download unexpected files[citation:8]
  • Login pages served from blob URIs instead of legitimate domains[citation:10]
