Complete Review disconnect.me
The owner of the website is hiding his identity. Spammers use this information to promote services to website owners. Some website owners therefor chose to hide their contact details. However, it can also be misused by scammers. Our algorithm gives a high rating if the identity of the website owner is shown.
The company has been reviewed both very positively as well as negatively. This is unusual. We, therefore, advise you to do more research. Please read our article How to Recognize Fake Reviews. Why are people giving so mixed reviews? Are the positive reviews by anonymous reviews who have only left one review? Why are some people giving very negative reviews while others rate the company high?
We discovered that the website is rated as popular by Tranco with a score of 50. This means that the website is visited by quite a lot of people. In addition other websites find this website interesting and relevant and are linking to it. As a result we increased our review score.
We discovered that the domain of this website has been registered several years ago. Websites of scammers are usually very new. Still, you have to be careful.

Technical Evaluation
We found a valid SSL Certificate. An SSL certificate is used to secure communication between your computer and the website. There are different levels of SSL certification. A free one is also available and this one is used by online scammers. Still, not having an SSL certificate is worse than having one, especially if you have to enter your contact details.
Internet privacy is out of scope of security providers, but not attackers. Individuals are tracked, surveilled, and hyper-targeted with advanced privacy threats that can directly lead to security breaches, ransom, blackmail, and liability.
