This domain was neutralised before the abuse-report cycle could be dispatched — either the hosting provider / registrar suspended it on their own, the DNS went dead, or the operator abandoned the infrastructure. PhishDestroy keeps the evidence bundle on file for audit but no formal notice was sent. ## TIMELINE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Domain registered: 2020-11-28 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-02-25 02:39:27 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) First reported: 2025-12-28 04:01:44 UTC (abuse notice filed) Last verified: 2026-05-08 04:44:02 UTC Neutralised: 2026-02-24 18:06:44 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019b631d-cc58-70ba-82a0-10cd695edb6f/ Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/hyperbolic.xyz crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.hyperbolic.xyz Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=hyperbolic.xyz AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/hyperbolic.xyz URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/hyperbolic.xyz/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-03-03 03:25:10 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy has identified hyperbolic.xyz as an active phishing domain masquerading as "Hyperbolic – The Open-Access AI Cloud." While classified as a generic phishing threat with a low risk level, the site may attempt to deceive users into divulging sensitive information under the guise of legitimate AI services. The domain hyperbolic.xyz was created on November 28, 2020, and is registered via Squarespace Domains II LLC. It resolves to the IP address 216.150.16.129 and has been detected on one security blocklist. AlienVault OTX data shows it appearing in one threat pulse, and VirusTotal flags it by one out of 95 security vendors. Despite these warnings, the domain remains active and potentially harmful. Users are advised to exercise caution when encountering this site or similar domains presenting AI-related services without proper verification. Avoid submitting personal or financial details on hyperbolic.xyz and report any suspicious activity to security professionals. Employing updated security software and consulting threat intelligence platforms like PhishDestroy can further improve online safety. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- Favicon MD5: f5dd29d0a35fec518f0531f8f6419e5e TLS cert SHA-256: b76110e4f9953d4d89046b78cf40494cfc2286a4c594271c66aef1e18ee0a16b ## SCORING METHODOLOGY ---------------------------------------------------------------- Composite score is NOT derived from VirusTotal alone. PhishDestroy aggregates: - VirusTotal positive ratio - Public blocklist consensus (MetaMask, ScamSniffer, OpenPhish, PhishTank, URLhaus, CryptoFirewall, SEAL, Polkadot, Enkrypt, Phishunt, DiscordPhishing, PhishingDB) - Cloaking detection (HTTP 666 or rendering delta between bot and real visitor) - DNS-filter consensus (Quad9, CleanBrowsing, NextDNS, AdGuard, Cloudflare, etc.) - AlienVault OTX pulses + Cloudflare Radar + Google Safe Browsing - URLScan / URLQuery verdicts - Brand-impersonation heuristics (DOM analysis of forms, logos, wording) - Known phishing-kit fingerprinting (favicon hash, JS obfuscation signatures) - Wallet-drainer family classification (Angel, MS, Rainbow, Pink, Inferno, ...) - Free-TLS vs paid-cert ratio (throwaway infrastructure signal) - Registrar/hosting abuse history (this registrar's track record) - Human researcher sign-off (volunteer takedown team) A domain present in our database is ALREADY flagged. A low VT count by itself does NOT mean the domain is safe — new scam domains routinely show 0/95 VT for their first 7–30 days while actively draining wallets. Always cross-reference the composite score and the individual indicators above, not just VT. ## CORRECTIONS / APPEALS ---------------------------------------------------------------- Full HTML report: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/hyperbolic.xyz/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=hyperbolic.xyz Appeal a flag: https://phishdestroy.io/appeals/ (responded to within 48 hours, FP rate <0.01%) Submit a report: https://t.me/PhishDestroy_bot About PhishDestroy: volunteer-driven open-source threat-intelligence platform.
