Full analysis
Overview
Vice City Custom Rods is a local business website for Braulio Suarez that presents custom freshwater and saltwater fishing-rod building, personalization, and rod-repair services, with revenue apparently derived from direct product sales and service fees.
Scam/Impersonation Risk
No contradictions were observed. The homepage presents a coherent local-business purpose, describes tailored rod construction and repair work, and provides a telephone contact rather than exhibiting phishing, credential-harvesting, cryptocurrency, or other high-risk interaction patterns. Technical analysis confirmed stable successful page delivery, no external network activity, no hidden forms, no password forms, no wallet connections, and no detected brand-impersonation indicators. Available reputation checks found no malicious detections, phishing indication, or confirmed blacklist result; coverage was not complete, so this remains supporting rather than conclusive evidence. The site is therefore consistent with an established, apparently legitimate business website, although the real-world operator identity is not independently verified.
- The homepage identifies “Vice City Custom Rods - Braulio Suarez” and describes custom fishing-rod construction, personalization, freshwater and saltwater applications, and repairs.
- Behavioral testing recorded 2 successful runs, a 1.0 HTTP 200 success ratio, 0 external XHR/fetch requests, 0 hidden forms, 0 password-external forms, and 0 wallet-connection runs.
- External reputation results recorded 0 malicious and 0 suspicious detections where evaluated, with no Google Safe Browsing malicious result and no confirmed blacklist result.
- The domain was registered on 2010-04-07 and is approximately 16.38 years old; registration is through GoDaddy.com, LLC.
Regulatory Verification Notes
The website appears to operate in ordinary consumer goods and repair services rather than presenting a regulated financial or investment offering. No license claim or license number is identified in the available business presentation; for this type of local fishing-equipment service, that is a transparency and applicability point rather than evidence of deceptive conduct. The homepage names Braulio Suarez, but the available evidence does not independently connect that name to a verified legal entity. WHOIS privacy is an administrative limitation, not an identity contradiction. No relevant third-party broker match was identified.
- The homepage categorizes the offering around direct-to-customer custom fishing-rod sales and rod-repair services.
- The available business presentation contains no stated license authority or license number.
- WHOIS records show the registrar as GoDaddy.com, LLC, with the registrant organization listed as Domains By Proxy, LLC and the owner marked private.
- The site is served from AS54641, IMH-IAD - InMotion Hosting, Inc., US; its DV TLS certificate was issued by YR2 and is valid to 2026-10-26T02:36:46+00:00.
What to Verify Next
Before credential or payment interactions, an interested party should independently confirm the merchant’s legal identity, obtain and review applicable ordering, repair, return, warranty, and refund terms, and ensure that any payment method provides appropriate consumer protection. The published business contact channel should also be confirmed through an independent route, particularly before sending high-value equipment or making an irreversible payment.
- The homepage supplies the telephone number 786-329-9861 as a direct business contact.
- The analyzed page is a local-business/product landing page with no login form, sensitive form, or untrusted form destination.
- The site’s title identifies the business and individual as “Vice City Custom Rods - Braulio Suarez,” providing a specific identity reference for independent merchant checks.
Summary Verdict
Available evidence is consistent with an established, apparently legitimate, low-risk website supporting a high-trust posture. No scam, phishing, impersonation, or identity-conflict indicators were observed, but operator identity remains unverified; legitimacy should therefore be treated as evidence-consistent rather than proven.
Infrastructure Integrity
The site resolves directly to a likely origin address rather than being fronted by a detected CDN, with no edge-IP or WAF deployment identified in the supplied infrastructure data. This conventional hosting posture neither establishes legitimacy nor creates a material adverse finding, and the resolved infrastructure was stable during testing.
- The site resolves to the single IP address 199.250.202.199.
- Infrastructure analysis recorded 1 unique IP, 0 edge IPs, 1 likely origin IP, and no detected CDN.
Closing Assessment
Ordinary browsing is proportionate to the assessed posture; before credentials or payment are submitted, independent merchant-identity, transaction-policy, and payment-protection checks should be completed.

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