I clicked a link in an email from my kid's school and it was a fake login page

It looked exactly like the real parent portal, but the URL was off by one letter. I almost put in my password. Now I check the address bar every single time before I type anything. Has anyone else seen these copycat sites getting really good lately?

Yeah, the copycat sites are getting scary good. My bank sent a legit email last week, and I spent five minutes staring at the link because the real site and the fake ones look like twins now. It's like they're not even trying to hide the bad spelling anymore, just copying everything pixel for pixel. Makes you wonder who's even winning this game sometimes.

Right? How are we supposed to tell the difference anymore? Feels like we're all just guessing half the time.
