Full analysis
Security Alert
Kaspersky, Sophos flagged this site in external intelligence checks, indicating elevated compromise/scam exposure that requires immediate caution.
DARMEL Gebäudereinigung is a local commercial cleaning website serving Augsburg and surrounding areas, presenting office, deep, post-construction, window, garage, and photovoltaic-panel cleaning services for businesses and private customers. Its apparent business model is to generate quote requests and sell one-off or recurring cleaning services, supported by environmental-cleaning claims, testimonials, contact details, opening hours, and legal-information pages.
Scam/Impersonation Risk
The website presents a coherent local-service proposition rather than an obvious phishing or credential-harvesting flow: the homepage describes cleaning services, contains a quotation/contact form without a sensitive-data field, and no login or wallet interaction was observed. However, this benign page presentation is contradicted by significant external threat intelligence: the domain has eight malicious detections, flags from Kaspersky and Sophos, and a confirmed blacklist status from the evaluated blacklist sources. No separate brand-impersonation or identity-name conflict was established, but the blacklist and malicious detections are sufficient to create a material risk for sensitive interaction. The website also contains a multi-year registration history and archival continuity, but those historical signals do not offset the current external threat findings.
- Homepage: describes office, deep, construction, glass, garage, and photovoltaic-panel cleaning and provides a quote-request pathway.
- Page behavior: one contact/quote form was observed; no login form, hidden sensitive form, wallet connection, external posting, or suspicious script activity was detected.
- External reputation: 8 malicious detections were recorded; Kaspersky and Sophos were among the flagged vendors, and the domain was marked by external blacklist sources.
- Domain and archive history: domain age is 4.91 years; 33 archive snapshots span 2021-09-19 to 2026-06-11, covering 6 years tracked.
Regulatory Verification Notes
The site includes an Impressum, Datenschutz, and AGB, together with an address, telephone number, email contact, and opening hours. These disclosures provide a conventional service-business presentation, but the available evidence does not independently verify the real-world operator identity; ownership and governance transparency therefore remain unresolved. No licensing authority or license number is claimed in the available site content. That omission is a regulatory-verification gap rather than, by itself, proof of fraud. The absence of a matching record in the broker-reputation dataset is contextual only and does not establish legal status or licensing.
- Legal-information pages: Impressum, Datenschutz, and AGB are linked from the site.
- Identity and contact pages: an address, telephone number, email contact, and opening hours are presented, but independent operator verification is not established.
- Hosting telemetry: served on AS21499 through GODADDY-SXB - Host Europe GmbH, DE.
- Transport security: TLS certificate issued by Starfield Secure Certificate Authority - G2, validation level DV, valid to 2027-02-02.
What to Verify Next
Before commercial engagement, the contracting entity named in the site’s legal information should be matched against the relevant German business registry and, where applicable, the competent local trade or sector authority. The published business address and telephone number should be confirmed through an independently sourced or offline channel, and payment arrangements should use protections appropriate to the transaction rather than irreversible methods. Any browser or endpoint warning associated with the domain should be treated as a blocking condition for sensitive interaction until independently resolved.
- Relevant business registry: confirm the legal entity and trading authority independently of the website.
- Independent contact validation: verify the business location and telephone details using a separate source.
- Payment process: require a written quotation, contractual counterparty, service terms, and payment protections before funds are transferred.
- Endpoint controls: preserve and review any security-product warning before proceeding beyond passive browsing.
Summary Verdict
The overall posture is critical, with a high likelihood of sensitive-interaction risk despite the site’s plausible local-business presentation and ordinary page behavior. The available evidence is not sufficient to treat the website as trustworthy for credentials, account access, or financial activity.
Infrastructure Integrity
The site is hosted directly through Host Europe GmbH in Germany on AS21499, with four likely origin addresses and no detected CDN or edge-IP layer. Its transport encryption is provided by a valid DV certificate from Starfield Secure Certificate Authority - G2; this protects the connection in transit but does not establish the legitimacy of the operator or neutralize the external reputation findings.
Closing Assessment
Activity should remain limited to passive viewing until the operator, business registration, contact channels, and transaction arrangements have been independently validated; credentials and financial information should not be submitted in the interim.

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