Greetings again, Declan.
I work with VeriSign and, in response to the post below, wanted to pass along the company's official position on their trust mark seal...
By implementing the new VeriSign trust mark on their Web sites, businesses provide consumers with a greater degree of certainty, than is currently available, that they're dealing with a real business. Improving the reliability of trust marks and online safety is the goal of VeriSign's trust mark program. VeriSign advises, however, that all cases of online misrepresentation are best addressed through a combination of technology and compliance processes. VeriSign has its own compliance program in place to help detect erroneous online data and take appropriate action against it.
