Is my shiny gengar hacked?

I received a shiny gengar from a surprise trade and I wanna know if it's hacked

We need to see the Pokémon in order to determine it.

Does the OT/nickname have .com at the end of it?

It probably is. I've never gotten a genuine shiny from a surprise trade.

One time a hacker traded me a hacked shiny Kadabra and I had to sit through it evolving because I couldn't cancel it and when I get traded hacked Pokémon I usually just trade them again.

I often just do surprise trades as I play, and I kept getting this one hack guy who traded me ridiculous hacked Pokemon. I got a shiny ceruledge with the stats bulging at the edges of the stats thing. Now it's a joke between me and my friends.

"Man, that Bewear was so though!"

"The Ceruledge could take it."
