Thanks Dennis. Interest that the article also attempts to answer the question, ³Why² - and attributes some of the low numbers to the way that browsers display the name in full punycode form. I wonder if policies at the registry level have had any impact?

In it they state ³From January 2007 to June 2014 we found only nine true homographic phishing attacks. [] One hundred and three IDN domain names were used for phishing in 2H2014. None were homographic attacks.² Clearly, those claiming to watch out for IDNs for spoofing attacks are overstating the problem.
