Full analysis
Security Alert
Sophos, Fortinet, Google, Kaspersky flagged this site in external intelligence checks, indicating elevated compromise/scam exposure that requires immediate caution.
This website is a personal portfolio for Eduardo Schlichting, a web developer and designer in Woodstock, Ontario, presenting branding, web design, and custom development services for small service-based businesses, with customer acquisition conducted through project enquiries and contact interactions.
Scam/Impersonation Risk
The site’s homepage presents a coherent personal-service portfolio, contains no visible login or sensitive-data form, and shows no page-level brand-impersonation indicators. However, this benign presentation is outweighed by a confirmed external blacklist finding and malicious classifications from multiple security providers. The available evidence therefore supports a critical sensitive-interaction risk posture: the content does not itself establish that the operator is malicious, but the external detections are sufficiently serious that credentials, financial information, and other sensitive interactions should not be submitted. The published business identity remains unverified, and no identity contradiction between multiple legal entities was observed.
- The homepage identifies Eduardo Schlichting and describes branding, web design, and custom development services; page analysis recorded no fraud red flags.
- External reputation telemetry recorded 10 malicious detections, including detections from Sophos, Fortinet, Google, and Kaspersky.
- The domain was reported by two external blacklist sources; a separate major browser-safety check was not malicious, but this does not offset the confirmed blacklist result.
Regulatory Verification Notes
The available page content is consistent with a freelance web-design portfolio rather than a regulated financial or investment service. It presents a named individual and a Canadian location, but the operator’s real-world identity is not independently verified by the supplied evidence. No regulated-service license or license number is claimed on the reviewed content; this is a verification limitation rather than, by itself, evidence of fraud. The domain’s registration continuity and transport-security configuration are established technical facts, but neither proves the operator’s identity or business standing.
- Domain registration: 2019-12-04; age 6.72 years; registrar GoDaddy.com, LLC.
- Web-archive record: 15 snapshots spanning 2021–2025, with 5 years tracked.
- Hosted on AS13335 (CLOUDFLARENET - Cloudflare, Inc., US).
- TLS certificate issued by WE1 (DV), valid to 2026-10-24T20:29:00+00:00.
What to Verify Next
Before any sensitive interaction, an independent route should be used to confirm that Eduardo Schlichting is the intended service provider and that the proposed engagement, contracting entity, payment destination, and support channels are consistent with that identity. Any licensing or registration expectation should be checked with the relevant Canadian or provincial authority only if the proposed service involves regulated activity. The site should not be treated as sufficient evidence of identity merely because its portfolio content appears professional.
- The homepage provides a personal name, location, services, and a client testimonial but does not independently authenticate the operator.
- Behavioral testing observed no login form, hidden sensitive form, wallet connection, or wallet-drainer activity.
- The site presents no regulated financial product or license claim in the supplied content.
Summary Verdict
The overall posture is critical trust risk. A professional-looking portfolio and apparently ordinary service model do not overcome the confirmed external threat detections, so the site is not suitable for sensitive interaction on the evidence available.
Infrastructure Integrity
The website is protected by Cloudflare CDN/WAF infrastructure and resolves through Cloudflare edge servers rather than an observed origin address. The infrastructure provides a meaningful exposure-mitigation layer, but it is not proof of legitimacy and cannot offset the external reputation findings. The observed hosting provider is CLOUDFLARENET - Cloudflare, Inc., US, on AS13335.
Closing Assessment
Passive viewing is the proportionate use case; login, credential submission, payment activity, and other sensitive transactions should be withheld unless the operator and engagement are independently validated through trusted channels.

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