Evidence

A lookalike family on the .cc extension (observed names include dotinumXXo.cc, dotinumXXg.cc, dotinumXXa.cc, with fresh variants rotating in) impersonates the real dotinum.com by extension swap.
The family runs fake “Machine Learning Engineer” recruitment — a technical, high-salary title chosen to attract skilled applicants who will hand over detailed personal data.
Dotinum won a registrar takedown against the family in July 2025 — company action that independently confirms the campaign; the family’s persistence since shows it re-registers fresh variants.
The real Dotinum operates at dotinum.com and never recruits from .cc lookalikes.

Red flags in this impersonation

01Wrong domain — the real company is at dotinum.com; any “dotinum” recruiting site on the .cc extension (or any extension swap) is a lookalike by construction.

02A registrar takedown is not the end — this family re-registers fresh .cc variants after each takedown, so “it was removed last month” proves nothing.

03Recruiting emails or sites using the real company’s name with a different extension — the extension swap is the whole trick.

04Any recruiting process that leads to fees, equipment deposits, or detailed identity/financial data collection before a real contract — that is the harvest.

05Verify the employer’s real domain yourself before replying — never via a link the outreach provides.

Who corroborates this evidence

The company’s registrar takedown (July 2025)

Dotinum itself won a registrar takedown against the .cc lookalike family in July 2025 — independent, company-initiated action confirming the impersonation campaign.

Brand-domain mismatch

The real Dotinum operates at dotinum.com; the .cc family has no connection to the company.

Fake-recruiting pattern match

Fake “Machine Learning Engineer” recruitment under a real tech company’s name matches the documented fake-recruiter playbook — the same pattern documented in the Wordibly, Arctoris, and KeenLogic cases on this site.
