Full analysis
Overview
This is the Anniston Islamic Center’s community website, presenting information about daily and Friday religious services, counselling, educational programs, a clinic, community resources, events, contact arrangements, and donation-supported activities.
Scam/Impersonation Risk
No contradictions were observed across the available evidence: there were no phishing, impersonation, blacklist, or malicious-content indicators. The homepage presents a coherent community and religious-center purpose, including a physical address, telephone contact, board and organizational information, schools, services, and donation options. The site also contains a standard contact form without a sensitive-data submission function and no login form, hidden form, or untrusted form destination was identified. Available external reputation checks did not identify malicious activity, although coverage was not universal.
- The homepage identifies Anniston Islamic Center and presents its services, programs, contact details, and donation function.
- The About and organizational pages provide mission information, a board of directors, organizational structure, and bylaws.
- The domain was registered on 2014-03-18 and is approximately 12.43 years old; historical records span 2014-12-18 to 2026-06-07, covering 13 years.
- No brand-impersonation, phishing, or malicious-content indicator was identified in the analyzed page behavior and content.
Regulatory Verification Notes
The site appears to operate as a local religious and community organization rather than a financial or investment service. Its pages describe schools, counselling, a free clinic, burial services, outreach, and donation-supported activities, but no licensing authority or registration number was identified in the supplied site content. This is a transparency item for ordinary organizational verification, not evidence of fraudulent conduct. The site’s apparent legitimacy is supported by its long-standing registration, coherent organizational disclosures, known registrar, valid transport encryption, and identified hosting infrastructure; however, the real-world operator identity remains independently unverified. The available third-party broker context contains no match.
- The About pages identify an organizational structure, board of directors, mission and goals, and bylaws; the services pages describe the center’s community activities.
- The domain is registered through TUCOWS.COM, CO., with an expiration date of 2027-03-18.
- The site is hosted on AS54641, IMH-IAD - InMotion Hosting, Inc., US.
- The transport certificate is issued by YR1, uses Domain Validation (DV), and is valid through 2026-10-19T04:58:33+00:00.
What to Verify Next
Before any donation or other payment, independently confirm that the intended recipient is the Anniston Islamic Center and that the payment destination is officially associated with the organization. For any credential or payment interaction, confirm the organization’s contact and merchant details through an independently obtained channel, review the applicable payment-protection and receipt arrangements, and retain transaction records. If formal charitable or organizational status is material to the transaction, confirm it through the relevant official registry.
- The site publishes an address and telephone number on its homepage and contact materials, providing details that can be checked through an independent channel.
- The site offers donation options and describes community, school, clinic, and program activities, making recipient and payment-destination confirmation relevant.
- The supplied content does not identify a licensing authority or registration number, so any required formal status should be confirmed externally.
Summary Verdict
Available evidence supports a high-trust, low-risk posture consistent with an established, apparently legitimate community website. The conclusion is supported by coherent site content, sustained domain presence, valid TLS, and the absence of observed contradiction or malicious-activity indicators. It does not independently prove the real-world identity of the operator.
Infrastructure Integrity
The site is directly hosted through InMotion Hosting, Inc. on AS54641 in the United States, with one resolved hosting endpoint and no detected CDN or WAF layer. The valid DV certificate issued by YR1 provides transport protection, while the absence of an edge protection layer means the hosting endpoint is not additionally shielded by mainstream CDN/WAF infrastructure.
Closing Assessment
Ordinary informational use is proportionate to the observed posture; before providing credentials or making payments, complete the standard independent identity, payment-protection, and transaction-record checks appropriate to the intended interaction.

About this assessment
A trust score summarises the evidence TrustSniffer could collect about annistonic.org 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.
