The independent current first-party review did not reproduce behavior supporting a Suspicious Website classification for alpha-peptides.co.uk. The prior broad domain category was unsupported by a current exact malicious URL, file, payload, redirect or phishing flow, so the current Gridinsoft classification was corrected to Safe.

Scope and limitations
- The result applies to the public unauthenticated pages and responses reviewed at the recorded time; site content can change.
- Seventy-two sitemap routes returned HTTP 429 during the bounded crawl and were not treated as clean responses.
- No purchase, checkout, payment, account login, form submission or product transaction was performed.
- Private Shopify administration, server-side code, merchant records, order records, logs, databases and non-public routes were not audited.
- This cybersecurity verdict is not an assessment of product quality, regulatory compliance, medical suitability, legality or a commercial endorsement.
- Public OSINT is finite. URLhaus required authorization, the VirusTotal public endpoint was rate-limited, Common Crawl was unreachable, and private or unindexed evidence was not available; unavailable sources were treated as unknown rather than clean.
