Domain Name муѕрасе.com For Sale, Affordable

[DomainEngineer]

How much would you pay for the domain name муѕрасе.com? NewsCorp paid millions for MySpace, but you can have муѕрасе.com on the cheap, relatively speaking (it’s at $202 on eBay right now).

It’s not myspace.com, but rather a cyrillic IDN domain name that looks like the genuine McCoy, but isn’t. The character encoding is different, but the characters displayed look almost the same. It’s tricky, and effective.

While IE6 won’t resolve the domain name, Firefox and IE7 will. Whoever wins this eBay auction will find themselves in the position to launch (illegally) a phisher’s goldmine.

Check your domain names, kids.
