I've been at a company that internally sends out fake links that log the user and links to an educational page on internet safety.
I honestly don't mind too much since it's a once a year thing (hacktober) and honestly companies should be trying to catch out employees who click any and all links.
I added google.com and it spit out https://twitterDOTc1icDOTlink/install_Jy7NpK_private_videoDOTzip
Interesting that it spit out a .zip url. Was not expecting that so I changed all the “.” to “DOT” so I don’t get punished for posting a spammy link despite this literally being a website to make links as spammy and creepy as possible.
My favorite link of all time:
https://jpmorgan.c1ic.link/logger_zcGFC2_bank_xss.docm
Definitely not meta
https://jpmorgan.c1ic.link/G4JQKX_money_request.dll
well played sir

IIRC, shadyurl was the original version of this. Doesn't seem to be around anymore, though.
For funsies I shortened https://creepylink.com
And got: https://c1ic.link/account_kPvfG7_download_now.bat

Saw this on relaunched Digg and figured HN would appreciate it.
I don't appreciate how AI generated this website looks.
Haha, it's fun. Just thinking, is there some place where creepy links would be better ?

Use case? Besides humor and phishing tests
Fun!
