Good records
The record has the first-level domain such as Arraycom, Arraybiz, or Arraystore. The Chinese first-level domain Arraycn does not appear to be misused (0. 36%). Arrayco’s extension, on the other hand, is occasionally misused (5. 4%) through scammers because it provides potential scammers with the impression that this is a valid Arraycom site.

How to make the Internet more secure?
Clearly, some Internet corporations are much better than others to keep fraudulent sites at bay. The trick turns out to be a fair price and well-structured visitor knowledge processes (KYC).
Corporations fighting the maximum that opposes a lot of fraudulent domain names seem worth it, for example, some registrars sell domain names with the Arrayltd extension for as little as $6. 98, Arraytop for $3. 98 and Arraystore for $1. 88 consistent with the year!
Several hosts, registries, and registrars have advanced their KYC policies with remarkable results. Danish login Arraydk, for example, has controlled the number of online department stores that promote counterfeiting by 80% in a year just by asking for identification.
