Intelligence
The domain ac-electrical.info was registered in October 2008 and has remained active for nearly 18 years. The business name matches an active UK limited company incorporated in 2015 with a registered address in St Agnes, Cornwall. Checkatrade lists the company with a 9.76/10 rating from 160 reviews and confirms NICEIC and CHAS accreditation. No antivirus engines flagged the site, the hosting IP shows zero abuse reports, and the visual layout matches a standard local service business page. The only anomaly is unrelated casino content on some sub-pages, which appears to be leftover template material rather than active fraud.

What to do
Still, stay alert
No major threat indicators — but a clean scan does not guarantee every page is safe, and phishing emails routinely spoof real domains.
- Double-check the exact URL in your address bar
Confirm you are actually on ac-electrical.info and not a lookalike like a-c-electrical.info.com or an IDN homoglyph.
- Use a password manager
Password managers only auto-fill on the exact domain they were saved for — they refuse to fill lookalike domains, which is the single best phishing defence.

- Yes. ac-electrical.info presents a valid TLSv1.3 certificate issued by Sectigo Limited · Sectigo Public Server Authentication CA DV R36, expiring in 127 days. Note that SSL only encrypts the connection — it does not guarantee that the site itself is trustworthy.
