The FBI published a warning last week. Threat actors have registered more than 498 fake domains tied to the 2026 FIFA World Cup. Fake ticket sites. Fake job listings. Fake merchandise stores.

We’ve rolled out a small but useful improvement to the Status Page → General settings. Previously, the Support contact field in the footer only accepted: Based on feedback from our users, the field now also supports phone numbers.
