It would have been better if you had used the proper word. It is called phishing? Phishing means someone is impersonating some individuals or companies to scam people. For example, someone might create a site like paypal and trick you to into this phishing site and rip off your money. This is one of the common internet frauds.

I have received a warning from my local bank about the veracity of the domain name. There are fake emails here that look like coming from a bank or a company. The email wants the user to verify his account by clicking the link. Of course, that is a click bait. But many are victimized by that trick.

You have first of all compare email received to email from real website, generally there is little difference like for example let's take trendri you may receive an email from [email protected] then requesting humble request to send document ID to have account verified and then most of people doesn't take interest in last double i however there is no relation between trendri.com and trendrii.com it is just a guy stealing users informations.

You gave only one sided information, which is an explanation of possible fake domain name, however you didn't inform how they will steal someone's money.
Title is informing more and content is informing less, so by declaring the reason openly, I am locking this thread; people should know that half information shouldn't be finalized.​
