Service Generates Intentionally Suspicious-Looking URLs

🔗 A new online tool converts benign web addresses into deliberately sketchy-looking links that mimic phishing or malware landing pages. The creator's example transforms www.schneier.com into a URL with domains like cheap-bitcoin.online and appended query strings that resemble exploit payloads. Security observers note the service highlights how easily visual trust cues can be subverted. It is a timely reminder for defenders and users to verify URLs beyond surface appearance.
