Disclaimer

Last Updated: January 15, 2026

The information provided on scamstester.com (the "Service"), operated by ScamsTester ("we," "us," or "our"), is for general informational purposes only. By accessing and using the Service, you acknowledge and agree to the terms of this Disclaimer. If you do not agree, please refrain from using the Service.

This Disclaimer should be read in conjunction with our Terms of Service and Privacy Policy, which together govern your use of the Service.

1. General Disclaimer

All information on this website—including trust scores, verification reports, blog articles, educational guides, and any other content—is provided on an "as is" and "as available" basis without any representations or warranties of any kind, whether express or implied. ScamsTester makes no guarantees about the completeness, accuracy, reliability, suitability, or availability of any information, product, service, or related graphic contained on the website for any purpose.

While we strive to keep the information on our Service accurate and up to date, we make no representations or warranties that:

• The information on the Service is complete, accurate, reliable, current, or error-free.
• The Service will be available at all times without interruption, delay, or error.
• Any defects in the Service will be corrected in a timely manner.
• The Service or the servers that make it available are free of viruses, malware, or other harmful components.
• The results of using the Service will meet your requirements or expectations.

Any reliance you place on the information provided through the Service is strictly at your own risk. We shall not be liable for any loss or damage, including without limitation, indirect or consequential loss or damage, arising from the use of or reliance on information provided through the Service.

2. Trust Score Accuracy and Limitations

2.1 Algorithmic Nature of Trust Scores

ScamsTester trust scores are generated by proprietary algorithms that analyze publicly available data and technical indicators associated with websites. It is essential that you understand the following about our trust scores:

• Automated Analysis: Trust scores are produced through automated processes. No human manually reviews or verifies every website in our database. While we employ sophisticated analysis techniques, automated systems are inherently limited in their ability to assess the full trustworthiness of a website.
• Data-Dependent: The accuracy of our trust scores depends on the quality, availability, and currency of the underlying data sources. If data sources contain errors, are outdated, or are incomplete, this may affect the accuracy of trust scores.
• Point-in-Time Snapshots: Trust scores represent a snapshot of a website's assessed trustworthiness at a specific point in time. Websites can change rapidly—a website that receives a high trust score today may become compromised, change ownership, or alter its practices tomorrow, and vice versa.
• Not Exhaustive: Our algorithms assess specific technical and reputational factors. They do not and cannot evaluate every aspect of a website's legitimacy, including the quality of its products, the truthfulness of its advertising, or the integrity of its operators.
• Potential for Error: Like any automated system, our algorithms may produce false positives (flagging legitimate sites as untrustworthy) or false negatives (failing to flag fraudulent or dangerous sites). No trust verification system is perfect.

2.2 Trust Scores Are Advisory Only

Trust scores and reports provided by ScamsTester are strictly advisory in nature. They are intended to serve as one data point among many that you should consider when evaluating a website. Trust scores:

• Do not constitute a guarantee, warranty, certification, or endorsement of any website.
• Should not be interpreted as a definitive judgment of a website's safety, legitimacy, or trustworthiness.
• Should not be the sole factor in any decision to transact with, provide personal information to, or otherwise engage with any website.
• Are not a substitute for your own judgment, research, and due diligence.

2.3 Factors We Assess

For transparency, our trust scoring methodology considers factors such as (but not limited to):

• Domain age and registration history
• SSL certificate presence and validity
• Web server configuration and security headers
• Presence in known blocklists and threat databases
• Website traffic patterns and popularity metrics
• Content analysis and similarity to known scam patterns
• User reviews and community reports
• Business registration and contact information availability
• Historical behavior patterns and reputation signals

For a detailed description of our methodology, please visit our Methodology page. The specific weights, algorithms, and proprietary techniques used in our scoring are confidential and subject to change without notice.

3. Not Financial, Legal, or Professional Advice

3.1 No Financial Advice

Nothing on this website constitutes financial advice. ScamsTester does not recommend, endorse, or advise for or against any financial transaction with any website. Trust scores should not be used as the basis for investment decisions, purchasing decisions, or any financial commitment. If you are making a significant financial decision, you should consult a qualified financial advisor.

3.2 No Legal Advice

The information provided on the Service is not legal advice and should not be construed as such. ScamsTester does not provide legal opinions on the legality of any website, its operations, or its compliance with applicable laws and regulations. If you require legal advice, you should consult a qualified attorney licensed in your jurisdiction.

3.3 No Professional or Security Advice

ScamsTester does not provide professional security assessments, penetration testing, or cybersecurity consulting. Our trust scores and reports are not a substitute for professional security audits or compliance assessments. If you need a professional security evaluation of a website or online service, you should engage a qualified cybersecurity professional.

3.4 No Medical or Health Advice

To the extent our Service analyzes health-related websites, nothing on the Service constitutes medical advice. Trust scores for health-related websites do not speak to the accuracy of their medical content. Always consult qualified healthcare professionals for medical advice.

4. Third-Party Links and Content

4.1 External Links

The Service contains links to external websites and resources operated by third parties. These links are provided for your convenience and reference only. ScamsTester:

• Does not control, endorse, or assume responsibility for the content, privacy policies, or practices of any third-party websites.
• Is not responsible for the availability, accuracy, or reliability of information found on third-party websites.
• Shall not be liable for any loss or damage caused by or in connection with the use of or reliance on any content, goods, or services available on or through any third-party websites.

4.2 Websites in Our Directory

The inclusion of any website in our trust report directory does not constitute an endorsement, recommendation, or partnership. We analyze websites for informational purposes and to help users make informed decisions. The websites listed in our directory:

• Have not paid for inclusion (unless explicitly labeled as sponsored content).
• Have not been vetted by ScamsTester beyond our automated algorithmic analysis.
• May change their content, ownership, security, or practices at any time after our analysis.
• May challenge or dispute their trust score, but the final determination remains at ScamsTester's sole discretion.

4.3 User-Submitted Content

Our Service may include content submitted by users, such as reviews, comments, and reports. We do not endorse, verify, or guarantee the accuracy or reliability of any user-submitted content. Opinions expressed by users are their own and do not represent the views of ScamsTester. We are not responsible for any decisions you make based on user-submitted content.

5. No Guarantees of Safety

5.1 Inherent Internet Risks

The internet is inherently risky. No verification service, including ScamsTester, can guarantee your safety when browsing, shopping, or interacting with websites online. Threats evolve constantly, and new forms of fraud, phishing, malware, and deception emerge daily.

5.2 Limitations of Any Verification Service

You acknowledge and understand that:

• No website trust verification service can identify all fraudulent, dangerous, or untrustworthy websites.
• Sophisticated scam operators may create websites that appear legitimate and pass many common trust checks.
• A website may be legitimate at the time of analysis but become compromised, sold to malicious operators, or change its practices after our assessment.
• Regional, cultural, and jurisdictional differences may affect the applicability of trust assessments.
• Some categories of risk (such as poor product quality, delayed shipping, misleading advertising, or unfair terms) may not be detectable through technical analysis alone.

5.3 Your Responsibility

You are solely responsible for protecting yourself online. We strongly recommend that you:

• Always verify the identity and legitimacy of websites before sharing personal or financial information.
• Use strong, unique passwords and enable two-factor authentication wherever possible.
• Keep your software, operating system, and antivirus protection up to date.
• Be cautious of unsolicited communications, phishing emails, and too-good-to-be-true offers.
• Monitor your financial accounts regularly for unauthorized transactions.
• Report suspected fraud to the appropriate law enforcement agencies and consumer protection organizations.
• Use multiple sources of information when evaluating a website's trustworthiness, not just ScamsTester.
