I was looking at the documentation of the TSDoc package from Microsoft -- specifically at this page and section:

That's where I noticed that the reference to SimplrJS link was pointing to "simplrjs.com" as you can see here:

I navigated to said url and then i was met a website displaying Vietnamese language (which i can't read). So I asked cloud to tell me more about the website what is and it origin.
This is what Claude told me:

I also Claude asked to do a WHOIS lookup to which I got this response:
The search didn't return direct WHOIS results. Let me try fetching it directly from a WHOIS lookup service.Here's what I was able to find — and where I hit a wall:
**What the lookup reveals about s8hn.com:**
- The domain is **relatively young** (recently registered, per ScamAdviser)
- It has a **valid SSL certificate**
- The **registrar has a high percentage of spam/fraud-associated domains** — a common trait with offshore gambling platforms that frequently cycle through domains
- ScamAdviser rates it as "likely safe" but with low traffic rank and a young domain age
**What I couldn't get:**
Direct WHOIS/owner data is **blocked or redacted**. This is very common for this type of site — gambling operators in Southeast Asia routinely use **privacy protection services** to hide registrant details, partly for legal reasons (online gambling is a grey-market activity in Vietnam), and partly because these platforms frequently swap domains when they get blocked by ISPs.
**Bottom line:**
The actual owner identity is almost certainly hidden behind a **domain privacy proxy**, and the network restrictions in this environment prevent me from querying WHOIS services directly. If you really wanted to dig deeper, tools like **DomainTools** or **ViewDNS.info** (paid tiers) can sometimes reveal historical registration data even when current records are redacted — but even those often come up empty for offshore gambling domains.
This looks nothing like the anything from SimplrJS (but I could be wrong here). Also it's safe to assume this is a fraudulent website.
I already send an email to simplr@quatrodev.com addressing this issue and create a pull request removing the URL.
