Is scibbl.io legit or a scam?
Typosquat clone of skribbl.io with phishing detections and no legitimate business presence.
These checks passed — but they don't clear the site. A clean antivirus result, valid SSL, and a calm server only mean it isn't hosting malware; they say nothing about whether the business is real. This verdict is based on the site's conduct and content, not a malware detection.

MT Intelligence
The domain scibbl.io is a deliberate one-letter misspelling of skribbl.io, a well-known legitimate multiplayer drawing game. Our network fingerprint confirms this is a typosquat and clone. The page itself contains only a title and a single redirect link with no descriptive content, business information, or contact details — a classic pattern for credential-harvesting or traffic-hijacking sites. ADMINUSLabs and Fortinet both flag the domain as malicious or phishing, and alphaMountain.ai marks it suspicious. The hosting IP has minimal abuse history, but the combination of typosquatting, minimal page content, security-engine detections, and complete absence of legitimate business registration strongly indicates this is a fraudulent redirect designed to capture users who mistype the legitimate domain.

Our live research agent queries scam-report databases, consumer-review sites, news coverage, and general web search for scibbl.io, then cross-checks business-registration records and look-alike domain patterns. Everything below is pulled from what it actually found.

- No scam reports, complaints, malware detections, or negative reviews were found for scibbl.io specifically in web searches.

Domain differs by one letter (scibbl vs skribbl); page content is a minimal redirect/landing for a drawing & guessing game identical to the popular skribbl.io Pictionary-style game by ticedev
We searched scam-report databases, consumer-review sites, and general web sources for scibbl.io and found no scam reports or complaints. However, our research confirmed that scibbl.io is a one-letter typosquat of skribbl.io, a legitimate multiplayer drawing game created in 2017 by ticedev. The legitimate skribbl.io has positive coverage on gaming platforms, Reddit, YouTube, and independent review aggregators. The typosquat domain itself has no business registration, WHOIS records, or legitimate operator information. The absence of scam reports for a newly deployed typosquat is not a sign of trust — such sites often operate briefly before being reported or shut down.

This page is styled as a known brand but is not the brand's real site.
- Do not interact with scibbl.io
Do not enter credentials, deposit money, download files, or install browser extensions from this site.
- Go to the brand's real site directly
Type the brand name into a search engine or open it from your bookmarks — don't use links from emails, SMS, ads, or social posts, which are the delivery vectors for impersonation.
- Never download or sign in here
Even if the page "just" offers a download or a giveaway, impersonation pages frequently deliver malware or set up follow-up phishing. Assume anything accepted from this site is hostile.
- OpenReport the impersonation to the brand
Most major brands have a dedicated abuse or anti-phishing reporting channel — reporting helps them take the site down and protects other users.
