Full analysis
Security Alert
Fortinet, Kaspersky, Sophos flagged this site in external intelligence checks, indicating elevated compromise/scam exposure that requires immediate caution.
This website presents Ayorinde Thomas & Co. as a chartered accountancy and professional-services firm offering audit and assurance, accounting and bookkeeping, tax advisory and compliance, and financial consulting on a fee-for-service basis. It describes the firm as a long-experienced business partner focused on financial integrity, compliance, and client growth.
Scam/Impersonation Risk
Confirmed external threat contradictions materially outweigh the site’s otherwise conventional professional-services presentation. Multiple external security services classified the domain as malicious or suspicious, and the site is subject to confirmed blacklisting. No identity contradiction or brand impersonation was observed in the supplied page content, and the single hosting-IP abuse report is specifically attributed to shared data-centre infrastructure with zero confidence; that report alone is therefore not treated as evidence against the site operator. However, the confirmed blacklist and malicious detections create a security-forward basis for treating login, credential submission, financial discussions, and other sensitive interaction as unsafe. The homepage’s polished accountancy claims, testimonials, office details, and stated history do not independently resolve those external contradictions.
- Homepage content identifies the business as Ayorinde Thomas & Co. and presents audit, bookkeeping, taxation, and consulting services.
- External reputation assessment recorded 10 malicious detections and 1 suspicious detection across 16 effective evaluations, including Tier-1 detections from Fortinet, Kaspersky, and Sophos.
- The domain was recorded as blacklisted by two external sources; Google Safe Browsing did not record a malicious result.
- Hosting-IP reporting recorded 1 report against 131.153.147.90, attributed to shared infrastructure operated by SECURED SERVERS LLC with confidence score 0.
Regulatory Verification Notes
The site’s claimed identity is not independently verified by the supplied evidence. Its pages describe a chartered accountancy firm and state that it has over 46 years of experience, but the available material does not establish the real-world legal operator or provide a verified regulatory connection. The site also does not state a license authority or license number in the supplied content, leaving the professional-status and authorization claims requiring external confirmation. This is a regulatory and disclosure verification gap, separate from the confirmed security contradictions above. The available broker-context check produced no name match and should be treated only as limited contextual information, not as evidence of authorization.
- Homepage states “A Firm of Chartered Accountants” and claims over 46 years of experience.
- Homepage lists audit and assurance, accounting and bookkeeping, tax advisory and compliance, and financial advisory and consulting services.
- Domain registration records show creation on 2014-03-21T11:20:06Z, expiration on 2027-03-21T11:20:06Z, and an age of 12.42 years; registrar: Domain.com - Network Solutions, LLC.
- The site’s transport encryption uses a DV certificate issued by YR2, valid to 2026-09-25T13:52:09+00:00, with 36 days remaining at collection.
What to Verify Next
Before any sensitive engagement, an independent party should confirm that the named firm exists in the relevant professional-accountancy registry and that the individuals offering services are authorized to provide them. The office address and telephone details shown on the contact page should be validated through an independently sourced business directory or offline channel rather than relying solely on the website. Any proposed payment destination, engagement letter, tax advice, or request for financial records should also be checked against independently obtained firm details and established payment-protection procedures.
- The contact page supplies an office address and telephone numbers suitable for independent cross-checking.
- The site provides a consultation-oriented service model but no sensitive login form or payment workflow was detected.
- The homepage contains no stated licensing authority or license number in the supplied page material.
Summary Verdict
The overall posture is critical trust risk, with a confirmed external security contradiction and an unverified real-world identity. The site’s professional presentation is insufficient to support confidence in sensitive interaction, and the available evidence does not justify treating it as an established or independently authenticated accountancy practice.
Infrastructure Integrity
The site resolves directly to a likely origin rather than a CDN edge and is hosted by SS-ASH - SECURED SERVERS LLC in the United States; no trusted CDN or WAF was detected. This infrastructure provides no meaningful protective mitigation against the external reputation findings.
- Served from AS19437, SS-ASH - SECURED SERVERS LLC, US.
- Resolved infrastructure shows 1 unique IP, 0 edge IPs, and 1 likely origin IP.
- No CDN vendors were detected and `has_cdn` is false.
Closing Assessment
Passive viewing is the only proportionate use supported by the evidence; credentials, financial information, and sensitive business engagement should not be submitted unless independent identity, authorization, and security checks first produce satisfactory results.

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