The page may look different now._ ## Key findings - Automated classification: Sensitive Interaction Risk. - Domain age: more than 10 years (registration continuity). - Public web-archive history exists since 2001. - At least one reputation service TrustSniffer consulted had flagged this domain at assessment time. ## Full analysis ### Security Alert Fortinet flagged this site in external intelligence checks, indicating elevated compromise/scam exposure that requires immediate caution. This website presents itself as the Canadian Raptor Conservancy, an informational conservancy focused on birds of prey, rehabilitation, captive breeding, educational shows, photography sessions, consulting, events, and retail sales. Its apparent business model is to provide conservation-related information and monetize ticketed programs, paid services, bookings, and merchandise rather than financial products. ### Scam/Impersonation Risk The site's visible content is coherent with a conservation and educational organization: the homepage and associated program pages describe birds of prey, rehabilitation, shows, photography, consulting, and a store, with no observed login form, credential-harvesting mechanism, investment offer, or cryptocurrency functionality. That benign presentation is materially contradicted by external threat intelligence reporting multiple malicious and suspicious detections, including a Tier-1 security-vendor detection, together with a confirmed blacklist status. The evidence does not establish brand impersonation or an identity inconsistency between legal entities, but the confirmed blacklist and corroborating detections create a substantial risk for sensitive interaction and prevent the site's apparent nonprofit purpose from being treated as reliable proof of legitimacy. Evidence: - Homepage and program pages: Content is consistent with a bird-conservation organization and contains no observed financial-product, credential-harvesting, or wallet-connection indicators. - External reputation telemetry: Multiple malicious and suspicious detections were recorded, including a Fortinet detection; the domain is confirmed blacklisted. - Domain registration and archive history: Registered 2001 (~25.61 years old); 322 archive snapshots spanning 2001–2026 (26 years tracked). ### Regulatory Verification Notes The analyzed pages describe a conservancy and service-based organization rather than a regulated financial business. However, the real-world operator identity remains unverified, governance and ownership transparency are insufficient for reliance, and the pages do not provide a licensing claim or registration number that independently establishes the entity's status. This is a verification gap rather than, by itself, evidence of fraud; in this case, it must be considered alongside the confirmed external reputation contradiction. The domain's long registration continuity and sustained archival presence are positive provenance signals, but they do not resolve the current security concern. Evidence: - About, What We Do, and Contact pages: Present the Canadian Raptor Conservancy identity and organizational activities, but do not independently establish the responsible legal entity. - Domain registration record: Registered through BRANDON GRAY INTERNET SERVICES INC. (dba “NameJuice.com”); creation date 2001-01-16T20:24:33Z; expiration date 2027-01-16T20:24:33Z. - Hosting and transport telemetry: Served from AS24940 (HETZNER-AS - Hetzner Online GmbH, DE); TLS certificate issued by YE1 with DV validation, valid to 2026-09-15T11:15:00+00:00. ### What to Verify Next Before any purchase, booking payment, donation, account creation, or submission of personal information, an independent party should confirm that the conservancy is a legally registered organization and that the relevant activities are authorized in the applicable jurisdiction. Contact details should be confirmed through an independently sourced, offline or institutional channel rather than relying solely on the website. Payment arrangements should use a protected method with chargeback or equivalent dispute rights, and any discrepancy between independently confirmed organizational details and the site should be treated as disqualifying for engagement. Evidence: - Contact page: Use the published organizational details as a starting point for independent confirmation through a separately sourced channel. - About and service pages: Confirm that the named organization, facility, programs, and responsible operators correspond to the entity recorded in applicable official registries. - Store, events, and booking pages: Validate the merchant or payment recipient before authorizing any transaction. ### Summary Verdict The website carries a **critical trust posture** for sensitive interaction. Its established-looking content and historical continuity are outweighed by corroborated external threat detections and confirmed blacklisting, while the real-world operator remains unverified. The evidence therefore does not support treating the domain as dependable for credentials, account access, payments, or other high-consequence activity. ### Infrastructure Integrity The site is protected by a CDN/WAF layer, and the analysis observed only CDN edge infrastructure rather than an origin server. This reduces direct exposure of the origin and may mitigate some infrastructure-level attacks, but it is only a defensive control and does not establish that the website or its operator is legitimate. Evidence: - Network infrastructure: CDN/WAF protection was observed with one edge IP and no origin candidate identified. - Origin posture: The origin server was not observable through the analyzed resolution path, leaving the protective edge as the visible service layer. ### Closing Assessment Prospective users should restrict activity to passive viewing until the organization and its transaction channels have been independently confirmed; sensitive interaction should not proceed on the basis of the website's presentation alone. _Written analysis generated 2026-08-21 by the TrustSniffer Analysis Engine from the evidence in this report._ ## What the analysis found 2 findings contributed to this verdict, raised by registration and ownership, analysis engine, behaviour in a sandbox, external reputation. ### 01 Governance Risk - The public registration record for this domain is incomplete. (Registration and ownership `rule:KF_WHOIS_INCOMPLETE`) ### 02 Sensitive Interaction Risk - The analysis matched a pattern TrustSniffer treats as a direct threat to a visitor. (Analysis engine `signal:direct_threat`) - The page sent data to a destination TrustSniffer does not recognise. (Behaviour in a sandbox `rule:BEHAV_NONWHITELISTED_POSTS`) - An external threat feed lists this domain: either Google Safe Browsing marked it malicious, or a significant number of malware engines flagged it. (External reputation `rule:EXT_BLACKLIST_CRITICAL`) ## Identity verification | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Status | UNVERIFIED | | Identity score | 30/100 | | Identity verification confidence | 50% | - No on-site identity signals detected _Identity verification measures whether the site can be independently connected to a real-world brand or person. It is separate from the classification confidence._ ## What TrustSniffer observed First-party facts recorded during the assessment of canadianraptorconservancy.com. - The request stayed on canadianraptorconservancy.com.

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. ## Related on TrustSniffer - [firstplanettravels.com risk report](https://trustsniffer.com/report/firstplanettravels.com) (Critical Risk, 0/100) - [getactive365.com risk report](https://trustsniffer.com/report/getactive365.com) (Critical Risk, 0/100) - [crisfooddigiverse.com risk report](https://trustsniffer.com/report/crisfooddigiverse.com) (Critical Risk, 0/100) - [montessorinttc.com risk report](https://trustsniffer.com/report/montessorinttc.com) (Critical Risk, 0/100) - [hellonariyal.com risk report](https://trustsniffer.com/report/hellonariyal.com) (Critical Risk, 0/100) - [376797.com risk report](https://trustsniffer.com/report/376797.com) (Critical Risk, 0/100) - [38cp666.com risk report](https://trustsniffer.com/report/38cp666.com) (Critical Risk, 0/100) - [art-bot.ru risk report](https://trustsniffer.com/report/art-bot.ru) (Critical Risk, 0/100) - [6h812.com risk report](https://trustsniffer.com/report/6h812.com) (Critical Risk, 0/100) - [korfezbirlik.com risk report](https://trustsniffer.com/report/korfezbirlik.com) (Critical Risk, 0/100) - [Every website and wallet TrustSniffer has assessed](https://trustsniffer.com/directory) - [Other domains assessed as high-risk or phishing](https://trustsniffer.com/directory/phishing-domains) - [Check another website](https://trustsniffer.com/web-intelligence) - [Check a crypto wallet address](https://trustsniffer.com/on-chain-risk) - [The TrustSniffer Risk Index](https://trustsniffer.com/stats) ## Guides - [Stablecoin Freezes, Sep 29, 2026: 9 Wallets](https://trustsniffer.com/blog/stablecoin-freeze-report-2026-09-29) - [Stablecoin Freezes, Sep 28, 2026: 24 Wallets](https://trustsniffer.com/blog/stablecoin-freeze-report-2026-09-28) - [Stablecoin Freezes, Sep 27, 2026: 3 Wallets](https://trustsniffer.com/blog/stablecoin-freeze-report-2026-09-27) --- *Source: [TrustSniffer](https://trustsniffer.com/report/canadianraptorconservancy.com) — independent automated trust & fraud analysis.
