reliable fake and temp email filter solution for site operators

FakeFilter

The intention of this project is to sweep temporary and fake email addresses from registrations. We collect fake email providers and their domains and want to publish them here in different formats. We want that site owners use this repo as reliable source to find out all fake/temp provider registration attempts.

Why FakeFilter

There are other lists like https://gist.github.com/adamloving/4401361 , https://disify.com/ , https://github.com/wesbos/burner-email-providers , https://github.com/disposable-email-domains/disposable-email-domains , https://github.com/elliotjreed/disposable-emails-filter-php , https://github.com/Propaganistas/Laravel-Disposable-Email , https://github.com/disposable/disposable - they do work with submissions. This is greatly appreciated service for the community. We want to thank to them. FakeFilter has different approach: we do actively monitor all known providers and get their domains almost realtime and distribute daily. All our system is automated. Your help is still required; if you submit us new providers, we will write services to watch those providers REALTIME. Users do have rights to fake their emails, but also service providers do have the right to know about this fact. We have nothing against free/fake services, this service aims to be automated and reliable.

Stats

Daily Coverage

Amount of coverage, actions against all known Disposable Email Providers per Day

Daily Unique Disposable Domains

Number of unique known validated Disposable Domains in Total at given Day

Success Rate Charts

We monitor every disposable email provider we know about and make charts about success rate in % per day. You can access provider based success rate charts at here

Adding new Providers

Please help us to add new Providers to this list, simply create an issue with the title as providers main sitedomain, this way we can group them by domain. Your help is appreciated.

Online Formats

We have implemented a RESTful API, you can check the API at fakefilter.net. This database is aimed to serve realtime, so once we detect a new domain, this API will have it. We recommend using the Offline format as backup since we cannot guarantee the uptime.

Offline Formats

You may use one of these formats to have access to the information flow in your favorite programming language:

Markdown

Json This format supports firstseen,lastseen,randomSubdomain properties

Txt

Whitelist

We whitelist major well-known providers from being blocked from fakefilter, just to make sure we do not add them automatically from our system. Some providers offer @gmailcom emails, adding such domains would be painful for the community.

Javascript Interface

We have implemented npm/javascript interface for Javascript Developers as demonstration

npm i --save fakefilter

You have to make sure that this npm package is always up2date in order this static implementation to work as designed.

Offline Lookup:

const { isFakeDomain, isFakeEmail } = require('fakefilter')

console.log(isFakeDomain('domain.com'))
console.log(isFakeEmail('[email protected]'))

Online Lookup:

this version does not throw at all. You either get null (which indicates any error) or false or the object as reply

## also see examples/online.js
const { isFakeDomainOnline, isFakeEmailOnline } = require('fakefilter')

console.log(await isFakeDomainOnline('domain.com'))
console.log(await isFakeEmailOnline('[email protected]'))

Test:

node index.js
