biladdress.org phishing scam website

I found this phishing-scam website https://biladdress.org that disguises as the famous paper-wallet generator bitaddress.org . The code picks a public address from a pre-defined list, unrelated to the private address that it displays. i.e. if you transfer bitcoins to the public-address you no longer have any control over them.

I won't be surprised if the owner of this website changes the internal list of public-addresses every time someone falls into the trap, to hide evidences.

I've reported on this domain and after few hours it showed a "Phishing Warning" for some time, but then everything returned back to normal. The owner probably changed the hosting provider or something.

I also found many domains that look like bitaddress.org with spelling mistakes (duplicated letters, missing letters, reordered letters, letters that are replaced with close keyboard keys), that redirect to biladdress.org :
