How do I know if a website is Not a Scam?

[Connor]

If you want, the internet version of the phonebook (it's called whois lookup) can tell you this:

Domain Name: HOURGLASSANGEL.COM
Created on: 13-Jul-07
Expires on: 13-Jul-13
Last Updated on: 14-Jul-12

Administrative Contact:
Soto, Ruben r.soto@hourglassangel.com
Hourglass Angel
7501 W Cermak Rd
M7
North Riverside, Illinois 60546
United States
+1.7084424533

I often use this and Google maps to check if the address exists, and then, if I'm still suspicious I email the contact given.

Google maps says the address exists, and a business called Hourglass angel operates from there. The map appears to show a Shopping Mall. see http://goo.gl/maps/1srdF or below for full URL if you don't trust Short URL's
