With some clever and subtle misspelling, two security researchers showed how
easy it is for an attacker to harvest a boatload of confidential emails,
including trade secrets, names, email addresses and passwords, from Fortune
500 companies.

Peter Kim and Garrett Gee from the information security think tank Godai
Group were able to intercept 20 gigabytes of sensitive data by setting up
"doppelganger domains" — Web domain names that look the same as legitimate
companies except for one tiny little detail: They are spelled incorrectly.
