Full analysis
Security Alert
Fortinet flagged this site in external intelligence checks, indicating elevated compromise/scam exposure that requires immediate caution.
The website presents Grupo Indep Perú as a nonprofit educational and corporate-training organization, offering government training, social-projection services, business consultancy, and related operational services through a contact form, social channels, and published contact details.
Scam/Impersonation Risk
A confirmed blacklist contradiction creates a critical risk posture despite the site’s otherwise conventional nonprofit presentation and the absence of an observed conflicting legal identity or explicit brand-impersonation signal. External reputation telemetry recorded multiple malicious detections, including a Tier-1 security-vendor detection, and the available structured assessment attributes the decisive concern to those detections rather than to the site’s stated business model. The domain’s long registration history and substantial archival continuity are positive provenance signals, but they do not offset the confirmed security warnings. No identity contradiction was observed, but the site’s real-world operator is not independently verified.
- External reputation telemetry recorded 6 malicious detections, with 1 Tier-1 vendor flagged, and a confirmed blacklist status.
- The domain was registered on 2004-12-29 and is 21.65 years old.
- Archive records contain 971 snapshots from 2007-04-27 through 2024-12-31, covering 18 tracked years.
Regulatory Verification Notes
The homepage describes INDEP–PERÚ as an “Asociación sin fines de lucro” and separately identifies ILLIMITE PERÚ SAC and EUROCONSULT TRADING SRL as service partners. The reviewed content presents training and consultancy services rather than a public investment or financial solicitation model, and no obvious phishing form or credential-collection mechanism was identified. However, no licensing authority or registration number was presented in the reviewed material, leaving the legal and regulatory basis of the listed services unresolved; this is a verification gap rather than, by itself, evidence of fraud. The site’s apparent identity is therefore evidence-consistent but not independently verified.
- The homepage identifies INDEP–PERÚ as a nonprofit association and lists ILLIMITE PERÚ SAC and EUROCONSULT TRADING SRL as corporate-service entities.
- The site’s transport encryption uses a DV certificate issued by YR2, valid to 2026-09-30 15:23:41 UTC.
- The hosting network is AS211126, operated by WHG-MEX - WHG Hosting Services Ltd, GB.
What to Verify Next
Before any sensitive engagement, an institution should independently confirm the nonprofit and partner-entity details with the relevant Peruvian corporate or nonprofit registries, and determine whether any of the advertised training, consultancy, valuation, inventory, or messaging services require sector-specific authorization. Contact details and the stated physical address should be validated through an independent source rather than relying solely on the website. Any request to create an account, disclose credentials, transmit financial information, or download materials should be escalated for separate security review.
- The reviewed site contains one contact form and no detected login form.
- Behavioral testing recorded no hidden forms, password-submission forms to external destinations, or wallet-sensitive activity.
- Behavioral testing recorded no external XHR or POST activity and no cloaking classification.
Summary Verdict
The overall posture is critical and unsuitable for sensitive interaction. The confirmed blacklist and malicious external detections outweigh the site’s established domain history, conventional nonprofit content, and apparently legitimate service descriptions; the identity remains only likely rather than verified.
Infrastructure Integrity
The site resolves directly to a single likely origin IP, 195.250.27.25, hosted by WHG-MEX - WHG Hosting Services Ltd in the United Kingdom on AS211126, with no CDN detected. The valid DV TLS certificate protects transport confidentiality, but these infrastructure characteristics do not establish operator legitimacy or mitigate the external reputation contradiction.
- Direct resolution identified 1 unique IP and 1 likely origin IP: 195.250.27.25.
- The hosting registry is RIPE NCC and the infrastructure country is GB.
Closing Assessment
Prospective users should restrict activity to passive review and should not submit credentials, personal information, or financial details through the site unless the external security findings and the operator’s identity have been independently resolved.

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
- Registration details are held behind a privacy service, so no operator is named publicly. This is common and legal, and it also means there is nobody to check.Registration and ownership
rule:KF_WHOIS_PRIVATE - The registration record withholds contact details for the operator.Registration and ownership
rule:KF_WHOIS_HIDDEN
02 Sensitive Interaction Risk
- The analysis matched a pattern TrustSniffer treats as a direct threat to a visitor.Analysis engine
signal:direct_threat - The structure of the page changed sharply while it was loading.Behaviour in a sandbox
rule:BEHAV_DOM_DENSITY_SPIKE - The page rewrote itself after it was interacted with, so what a visitor first sees is not what they end up on.Behaviour in a sandbox
rule:BEHAV_DOM_DIFF_AFTER_INTERACTION - 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

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