As per a security research firm Recorded Future, there are a couple of fake websites (around 14 of them) that are being registered.

- Coronavirus.zone
- Coronavirus-realtime.com
- Coronavirusstatus.space
- Coronavirus.app
- Bgvfr.coronavirusaware.xyz
- Coronavirusaware.xyz

The list also involves malicious coronavirus websites as well that can cause hackers to hack users on the pretext of Coronavirus. Another report by Recorded Future suggests that a number of malicious activities have been taking place as cybercriminals are encashing on the Coronavirus outbreak.
