Business verification
Company registration, addresses, and business identity.
- How can I verify an online company?
Match the website identity to official registers, check contact details and address consistency, read reviews critically, and use Fraudly for structured website signals.
- Does company registration prove a business is trustworthy?
No. Registration shows a legal entity exists. It does not prove honest trading or that the website is operated by that entity.
- Why might a business address be missing?
It can be a warning sign for fake shops—or a data gap for a real business. Treat missing address as incomplete evidence and verify other identity signals.
- How do I verify who is behind a website?
Combine domain registration clues, company register checks, contact consistency, and payment behaviour. Registration data alone never proves honesty—look for a coherent identity story.
- Does a VAT number prove a business is trustworthy?
No. A VAT or tax ID shows a registration identifier may exist—not that the business is honest, correctly branded, or safe to pay. Combine identity checks with behaviour and payment protection.
- How do cloned business identity scams work?
Scammers copy a real company’s name, logo, and sometimes registration numbers onto a lookalike site or invoice. Always verify domains and payment details through channels you already trust.
