So it is like "phishing website" but there is a slight difference.

It is actually like that, changing the URL name close to the original like Binance and other common cryptocurrency exchanges, wallets and other typical service that we use.

This really exists.

I guess some of you have seen those fake websites that's showing when you use google search and they are even sponsored.

Not just seen but one of the victims.
It was myetherwallet which was also the popular one which had been copied.
They just changed one of the "L" from the word wallet into an "I" in small letters.

That is the first time I had experienced a phishing technique, afterwards I bookmarked everything after looking at the legitimacy of the website.
This kind of events will not stop. With hackers and scammers having so much time spending in front of a computer, they will do evil works.

It's rampant and those hackers will never change their way.

Awareness is the best solution for this but with the newbies coming into this community, there will be a lot of potential victims that will be targeted by them.
