What is TrustScore and How Does It Work?

January 21, 20264 min read

Understanding TrustScore

TrustScore is a risk-assessment tool designed to help you make informed decisions when interacting with people or businesses online.

How TrustScore Works

TrustScore analyzes publicly available information to generate a risk assessment. It looks at factors such as:

- Digital presence - Website age, social media accounts, and online footprint - Business registration - Publicly available company information - Contact verification - Whether contact details are valid and reachable - Behavioral patterns - Consistency across platforms

What TrustScore Is NOT

TrustScore is not a guarantee of trustworthiness. It provides data points to help you make decisions, but it cannot predict future behavior.

> Important Notice: TrustScore results should be one of many factors you consider. Always conduct your own due diligence before any transaction.

Score Ranges

Scores range from 0 to 100:

- 70-100: Lower risk indicators observed - 40-69: Mixed signals; proceed with caution - 0-39: Higher risk indicators; investigate further

Using TrustScore Wisely

Use TrustScore as a starting point, not an endpoint. Combine it with your own research, verified reviews, and direct communication.
