alibaba.com's website address was registered 27 years ago, and is locked against transfer to someone else. It is among the 500 most-visited sites on the internet (Cloudflare Radar). Google Safe Browsing shows no malware or phishing warnings for its website. Be cautious: businesses with many customers get complaints, and the number says more about reach than conduct.

A high score means strong evidence that the business is established and legitimate, not a promise that every purchase will go well. A low score means the evidence is thin or raises concerns, not that the business is a scam.
