Investigation Brief
Polyfax.cc (Polyx) is a 2-day-old prediction-market platform that lets users bet on crypto prices and political events. The site requires registration via a prominent Sign Up button, yet the operator is anonymous, the domain is extremely new, and four security engines have labeled it suspicious or malicious.
Security-engine detections and domain age
Four out of ninety engines on PCrisk flagged the domain, and one independent antivirus family returned an adverse result citing Forcepoint, alphaMountain.ai, and Fortinet detections.
The registrable domain is only two days old, a trait commonly associated with high-risk or transient gambling platforms.
Observed site function and commercial flow
The homepage displays a clear “Sign Up” button in the top-right corner, indicating that users must register before placing bets.
Content on the page promotes short-term prediction markets such as “Bitcoin Up or Down, Sep 7, 7:00 PM – 7:05 PM ET,” confirming the site’s gambling nature.
Why the score is 35
1 independent antivirus family reported an adverse result. This comes from a saved antivirus observation rather than a new submission, so treat the detection as real but confirm the timing. Coverage remains separate so missing sources cannot be mistaken for clean results.

Domain & infrastructure
The plumbing behind the site — who registered it, how it’s encrypted, where it’s hosted, and where it links out. A valid certificate or a calm server doesn’t mean the business is honest — scam sites pass these checks too. Use this to corroborate the verdict, not to overturn it.
