Scamadviser 

Warning: Do not trust Scamadviser.com—they are the real scammers. Their CEO, Marc, who is based in Amsterdam, North Holland, is currently wanted by the FBI and will be arrested the moment he steps foot on American soil.

I started my own online store last year and have been working on this business for a year now. I am familiar with Scamadviser and check my score frequently. Typically, your rating improves over time, but when I checked recently, it indicated that I was likely a scammer. This is not true; their algorithm is based on inaccurate factors that do not reflect my business. Their suggestions could seriously harm a company's reputation. I've noticed that other companies with negative reviews receive high ratings from Scamadviser. This company operates from the Netherlands and seems largely immune to lawsuits. In my opinion, Scamadviser itself is questionable.

I own an online business and have been emailing them for 3 WEEKS to update and change my score. I really need a higher score to get approved on Google Merchant Center. How the hell do you not check your emails? I’m emailing multiple times per day off 3 different email accounts. Customer service is ridiculously bad. And they flagged my business because it’s new so that automatically means it’s a scam right? Garbage company screwing people over.

Platforms like ScamAdviser no longer function merely as “verification tools.” They operate as digital classification systems with the power to shape public perception and damage reputations without legal authority, independent oversight, or meaningful accountability.
The real danger is not the low trust score itself, but the chain reaction triggered once opaque algorithmic signals are absorbed by search engines, AI systems, browser security tools, advertising networks, and automated reputation frameworks. A single algorithmic label can gradually isolate a website, suppress its visibility, undermine its credibility, and implicitly associate it with fraud or suspicious activity even when no court ruling, formal investigation, or verified evidence exists.
These platforms hold no judicial power, yet their influence can exceed the practical impact of legal decisions. An independent website, investigative platform, or emerging media outlet can have its digital reputation contaminated by an automated assessment generated through undisclosed criteria. That suspicion is then recycled across interconnected systems that begin treating the signal itself as credible intelligence. Speculation becomes metadata. Metadata becomes reputation. Reputation becomes algorithmic punishment.
What makes this ecosystem especially dangerous is how easily it can be weaponized. Weak verification standards, opaque moderation systems, and simplistic reporting mechanisms create an environment vulnerable to malicious abuse. Coordinated false reports, reputation attacks, or targeted campaigns can exploit these systems to sabotage competitors, silence independent journalism, or damage platforms lacking institutional protection.
In practice, one no longer needs to legally defeat or professionally discredit an independent platform. It is enough to inject a negative signal into the algorithmic ecosystem and allow automated systems to perform the rest: reduce trust, amplify suspicion, poison discoverability, and feed distorted data into AI models that may later reproduce the same accusations in different forms.
The result is not merely a technical flaw. It is the emergence of a digital structure that rewards institutional power while penalizing independence. Large corporations protected by branding, capital, and influence can absorb algorithmic suspicion with little consequence. Independent journalists, small publishers, human rights platforms, and emerging voices cannot.
This is not simply “user protection.” It is the quiet privatization of reputational authority, where opaque algorithms increasingly act as unaccountable judges, and automated suspicion becomes capable of restricting visibility, distorting public trust, and reshaping access to information itself.

They peddle completely fake, garbage analysis of business websites while pretending to be some sort of legitimate authority. Then, they have the absolute audacity to demand money from you; expecting you to pay a fee just to get your hands on their fabricated, worthless "scam analysis" of your own site!

After declining to pay, their goblins will post fake dramas, fake stories, and fake fraudulent schemes on multiple social media using different accounts just to keep your reputation destroyed.

It is nothing short of extortion. Never, under any circumstances, trust this hypocritical company!

This site appears to run a reputation racket.

By default, it labels websites as scams, even when publicly available evidence suggests otherwise. It dresses this up as “analysis” based on a broad range of trust factors, but the standards it applies to others do not appear to be standards it follows itself.

It criticizes websites for using domain registration privacy, while its own domain appears to use GoDaddy domain privacy.

It treats SSL certificate level as a credibility signal, while using a free Let’s Encrypt certificate itself.

It flags missing or limited contact address information, while relying on a Netherlands PO Box.

It treats downloadable software as suspicious or “viral,” while offering its own browser extension and multiple apps.

Most troublingly, it offers a paid manual review process to alter ratings. That creates an obvious conflict of interest: the site can publish damaging reputation assessments, then charge the affected website owner for the opportunity to have that assessment reviewed or improved.

In other words, the site presents itself as a neutral trust authority while applying vague, one-sided, and self-serving criteria. It damages the reputations of other websites using metrics it either fails itself or selectively ignores when convenient, and then monetizes the cleanup process. That is not consumer protection; it is a pay-to-clean-your-name scheme dressed up as security analysis.

Warning by Trustpilot, nothing more needed.

I’m a business owner. I started my business and website recently and automatically was flagged as a scam. They don’t even do any due diligence to research anything about the business, just go off of some cookie cutter metrics about the website and automatically label is a scam or “ likely unsafe”. I didn’t give them permission to index my website or do a review on it. Because of this, my company has been labeled a “likely scam” by these frauds. I’ve emailed them 2 weeks ago and still no response. They literally extort companies behind their half a**ed review and we can’t do anything about it. They are the real scammers

ScamAdviser auto-flags legitimate websites based purely on demographic signals like domain age and hosting country...and then offers paid "manual
verification" to fix the score they themselves generated.

This is not scam detection. It is fear-based monetization. Verifiable facts anyone can check:

1. Their flag appears within days of domain registration, before any commercial activity is even possible. A site cannot be scamming users when it has no users yet!!!

2. The "reasoning" they publish applies to thousands of legitimate new businesses - "young domain", "hosting in [country X]". No actual fraud signals - no malware, no phishing reports, no consumer complaints. You are guilty scammer by default on this platform.

3. Their own Trustpilot profile currently carries a "Breach of guidelines" warning from Trustpilot itself, for displaying review content in a misleading way. Look at their profile and see for yourself.

4. Sitejabber rates them 2.8/5 across 345+ reviews. The recurring pattern in those reviews - business owners report unjustified low scores, followed by upsell pressure for paid verification.

5. Partner sites (Gridinsoft and various derivative trust
scanners) republish ScamAdviser's automated assessment, creating false redundancy that looks like independent confirmation. It is the same source recycled.

When a business owner refuses to submit private documents and refuses to pay for "verification", there is no functional dispute path. The negative flag persists regardless of objective security signals.

The paradox writes itself. A service named ScamAdviser is flagged by an actual consumer review platform for misleading practices.

For consumers:
Cross-reference any ScamAdviser score with Google Safe Browsing, the actual website content, and platforms with real fraud detection methodology.

For business owners flagged unfairly:

Do not pay, do not submit private documents to non-institutional reputation platforms.

EU operators have recourse under DSA Art. 14 (Reg. 2022/2065) and GDPR
Art. 16 (Reg. 2016/679).

Completely unreachable — broken contact form, bouncing email, no support.

I am a business owner trying to dispute an incorrect trust score for my website (futureshock.me). Here is what happened when I tried to contact ScamAdviser:

1. Contact form — Submitting returns another broken empty form and no confirmation email. The form DOM is broken with hidden fields and overlay popups that prevent submission in the second form that pops up after filling out the first one.

2. Email — report (at) scamadviser.com is bouncing. This is the email listed on their own contact page.

3. Claim website form — Also broken, no confirmation email ever sent.

4. LinkedIn company page — No direct messaging available.

There is literally no working way to contact this company. I will try X next, but not sure that'll work. I have made legitimate trust improvements to my site (registrar transfer, branded email, public WHOIS, privacy policy, social profiles) and have zero way to request a rescan or dispute the score.

A trust score service that is itself completely untrustworthy and unreachable is worse than useless.

It's the definition of a scam. It is a scam website that displays companies as not trustworthy, forcing you to pay them to fix the listing for your company.

Hi! again Ralph, manager from Seven13 Online Store
This is really starting to be embarrassing for the most part - I really want to believe that companies like (Scam-Detector.com) and (ScamAdviser.com) are actually '' business's ''that are here to discover, TRUTH.- over fiction- We built a WEBSITE for Seven13 Online Store over 55+ days ago. And here we are before we can break-ground stabilizing our business; having to keyboard dispute our business legitimacy. When there are phone numbers, email address's that both company's can make use of to see if they could reach us. This is bogus are they real companies or are they Scams. There are other business owners here saying the exact same-thing?? TRUST and REALITY can they betaken serious. These particular companies need to be FACT checked. ABUSE is what this.

This website is itself a scam as it is ruining all new websites' reputation on internet and Google itself supports in AI. This is a complete monopoly of Google I will say that it supports such companies.

Scam Adviser has ranked our legitimate website, which is the fastest seller of apple gift cards, applecarddelivery.com as fraud, but it isn't. This is our formal notice to scam advisor to stop defaming us.

Scamadviser appears like a scam itself - it for example reports CarBrief.eu as a probably legit website, even if it's widely known that CarBrief.eu is a scam phishing website used for stealing your personal, credit card, and PayPal details.

SCAM ALERT: This Dutch-based organization is run by hackers who believe they are untouchable by American law. They are targeting U.S. businesses by falsely labeling websites as "scams" and demanding ransom payments to clear the site's reputation. If you’ve been targeted, spread the word on social media to expose their extortion tactics!
