Signals, not verdicts. A domain appears here because heuristics matched its name, its infrastructure or the page it served on its first day. Where a model has looked at it, that is shown as an opinion with a confidence, not as a finding. Nothing on this page says a site is malicious. Read the evidence and decide for yourself.

Model opinions

Second opinionlooks like abusetarget: Microsoftconfidence 78%· claude-opus-5

microsofts-online.top is a plural-brand squat on Microsoft's account/portal naming, registered at a retail registrar behind Cloudflare NS, and serves no content of its own — it bounces visitors to an unrelated venture-capital blog (abovethecrowd.com), the classic decoy/cloak posture of a brand-squat domain parked until a phishing kit is deployed.

First passlooks like abuseconfidence 92%· claude-haiku-4-5

The domain microsofts-online.top is a clear typosquat of Microsoft designed to impersonate the brand through its name, but redirects to an unrelated legitimate site (abovethecrowd.com, Bill Gurley's venture capital blog). The typosquat name combined with Cloudflare nameservers and retail registrar is a classic brand-squat setup; the redirect to a real third-party site suggests this may be a redirect abuse campaign or temporary placeholder, but the primary abuse is the typosquat registration itse
