Trustpilot and reviews in supplier risk screening

How review sites help — and mislead — when verifying a supplier website. Use them as OSINT, not as a substitute for identity checks.
A 4.8 star card can belong to a different entity than the factory you are emailing. Always check the claimed website on the review profile.
Name reviews to the domain
If Trustpilot lists a different legal name than the site copyright, keep both on the dossier and ask the supplier to explain.
Low volume is weak signal
Five glowing reviews on a B2B factory are easy to game. Pair reputation OSINT with domain age and registry.
