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 opinionsuspiciousconfidence 55%· claude-opus-5

rcgroups.top serves no content of its own and simply redirects to Google's public DNS resolver page — the Google branding in the title/screenshot belongs to dns.google, not this domain, so it is not impersonation. The name echoes the RCGroups hobby forum on a cheap .top with Cloudflare NS and Namecheap registration, a typical holding/parked state pending real content; not decisive either way yet.

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

rcgroups.top is a typosquat domain (RC Groups is a legitimate hobbyist forum; this domain impersonates it via name) that redirects to Google's legitimate dns.google service. The redirect infrastructure suggests the domain was registered to exploit the RC Groups brand name for traffic hijacking or SEO abuse, not to phish credentials—the destination is authentic Google infrastructure, not a credential-capture page.

A model looked at the screenshot and page text and wrote what it thought. It can be wrong, and it is not a finding.
