Potential Scam kfzamt.de

[WaneQuirky]

Prerequisites

• I use the current version of the lists.
• I have blocked the domains in my network for several days now, and the blocking has not caused any disruptions or limitations.

Which blocklist(s) do you use?

Threat Intelligence Feeds

Which category do the domain(s) to be blocked belong to?

Malware/Badware/Phishing/Scam

Which domain(s) should be blocked?

kfzamt.de

Which website or app accesses the domain(s)?

kfzamt.de

Why should these domain(s) be blocked?

I found kfzamt[.]de on Reddit and the shared concern is mainly about legitimacy. The imprint shows a virtual address in Dubai, which does not fit how an official service should present itself. In Germany, the relevant authority handles KFZ registration and related steps for the state where it applies. There is typically no need for a middleman using a Dubai virtual office. Blocking this domain can help prevent others from being misled by the official sounding appearance while the site points to a virtual office in Dubai.

In this repository, a similar site was reported as well and it also has a virtual office in Dubai. Here is the link to the report:
#6191

Here is the reddit post:

Confirmation

• I have verified that no existing issue explains why the domain(s) were previously unblocked or why the blocking request was declined.
• I have verified that the domain(s) is/are not already blocked.
• I have verified that the domain(s) is/are active and not inactive (dead).
• I have provided sufficient details to justify the need for blocking the domain(s).
• I did not answer truthfully to any of the above checkboxes.

Terms

• I confirm that the request does not contain any sexually explicit material or private/sensitive information.
