Does trezor have same apperance sites that designed to scam other people's trezor ?
is that even possible ?

The company itself doesn't have a phishing site, that wouldn't make sense at all. Its people who run these sites in order to try scamming other people. It's impossible to work though as everyone knows the official site and you must authorize the transaction from the device itself in order to send anything.

Limited in number. Limitless in potential.

I guess its not possible, since its a hard wallet and you don't even have to login in any site with trezor, but the thing is if you will paste somewhere your recovery seeds to some third party site which is really idiotic decision if someone do that, I will only do that if necessary to an open source site and run it offline.

While your private keys are safe on your Trezor, you could still be tricked into sending a transaction to the false address if you're not careful.

To confirm your receiving address, when providing it to a third party, you should double check it on your Trezor screen for verification.

To confirm the address to which you are sending coins to, you should check on a secondary channel to verify the receiving address (separate device, sms, etc). Also check the amount to send on your Trezor screen.

Apart from that, I'm not sure what a potential phishing site could get from you. Possibly the passphrase, but that's useless without the seed itself. Maybe someone else has something to add?
