Full analysis
Security Alert
Sophos flagged this site in external intelligence checks, indicating elevated compromise/scam exposure that requires immediate caution.
This website presents KIYOMOTO FARM, a strawberry farm in Tamana, Kumamoto, offering freshly harvested strawberries and processed products—including syrup and vinegar—through a direct-to-consumer online shop, with additional information about cultivation practices, farm activities, and charitable initiatives.
Scam/Impersonation Risk
The site’s visible content is coherent with a small agricultural ecommerce business and does not show login forms, hidden sensitive forms, suspicious browser behavior, cryptocurrency functionality, or a detected brand-impersonation pattern. However, this benign presentation is outweighed by confirmed external threat detections: the domain is blacklisted by two external sources, and multiple security assessments classify it as malicious or suspicious. One browser-safety assessment did not identify it as malicious, but that isolated result does not reconcile the broader reputation signal. No conflicting legal names or direct brand-impersonation indicator were observed; the principal risk is the external threat reputation attached to the domain rather than an evident contradiction within the farm narrative.
- The homepage describes KIYOMOTO FARM’s strawberry cultivation, product sales, direct shipping, and charitable activities, with no detected phishing or sensitive-login form.
- External reputation assessments recorded 11 malicious detections and 1 suspicious detection; a Tier-1 security provider also flagged the domain.
- The domain is recorded as blacklisted by two external sources, while the Google Safe Browsing result was not malicious.
- Registration records show creation on 2021-09-28T09:56:46Z, with an age of 4.89 years; archive records contain 41 snapshots across 6 years, from 2021-11-23T17:53:30Z through 2026-05-09T14:09:16Z, with no detected suspicious repurposing.
Regulatory Verification Notes
The available site content presents KIYOMOTO FARM as a local producer and supplies business-location and contact information, but the operator’s real-world identity is not independently verified by the available evidence. No license claim or registration number is presented in the supplied content; for a farm ecommerce business, this is a transparency and verification matter rather than proof of wrongdoing. The domain’s registration through GMO Internet Group, Inc. d/b/a Onamae.com and its valid transport encryption are administrative and technical positives, but neither establishes the operator’s legal identity or offsets the external blacklist findings. No third-party broker-reputation match was identified.
- The homepage and farm-information content identify the business as KIYOMOTO FARM in Tamana, Kumamoto and describe its direct-sales activity.
- The domain is registered through GMO Internet Group, Inc. d/b/a Onamae.com.
- Hosting is on AS7506, operated by GMO-I-R1 - GMO Internet, Inc., JP.
- The site uses a DV TLS certificate issued by YR1, valid to 2026-10-19T02:10:59+00:00.
What to Verify Next
An independent check should confirm that the stated farm, operator, and selling entity correspond to a real and currently operating business, using an offline or independently sourced contact route rather than relying solely on the website. The linked social-media presence should be checked for consistent ownership, location, product activity, and cross-channel continuity. Before any purchase, the transaction should be limited to a payment method offering meaningful buyer protection, and the applicable food-commerce or business-registration requirements should be confirmed with the relevant local authority.
- The site publishes a physical location and contact route that can be cross-checked independently.
- The homepage links to an Instagram presence that can be assessed for continuity with the stated farm identity.
- The site’s commercial purpose is an online retail operation, making seller-identity and payment-protection checks directly relevant.
Summary Verdict
The overall posture is critical risk for sensitive interaction. The site’s coherent agricultural presentation and apparent identity linkage do not overcome the confirmed external blacklist and malicious-detection signals. Legitimacy therefore remains unproven, and the domain should not be treated as trustworthy for sensitive activity.
Infrastructure Integrity
The site resolves directly to a single likely origin address rather than a CDN edge, with no CDN or WAF provider detected. Its hosting is provided by GMO-I-R1 - GMO Internet, Inc., JP, and the infrastructure offers limited mitigation against the reputation risk associated with the domain.
Closing Assessment
Pending independent confirmation of the operator and transaction channel, activity should be restricted to non-sensitive viewing; login, credential submission, and financial transactions should not be conducted through the site.

About this assessment
A trust score summarises the evidence TrustSniffer could collect about 151e-berry.com at assessment time. It is a starting point for your own judgement, not a guarantee: a high score means the signals were consistent with a legitimately operated site, a low or critical score means several risk patterns were present.
TrustSniffer assesses a website from the evidence it can collect at a point in time: domain registration and age, hosting and certificate, the content the site served, and third-party reputation feeds. A score is a summary of that evidence, not a guarantee and not a legal finding. There is no human rating and no user review in it. A site can change after it is assessed.
