Verifying against the live site and live WHOIS/DNS…
Common questions
Is 1-800-balloons.com legit or a scam?
AboutUs doesn't label sites "legit" or "a scam": this page lists the dated registration, DNS, HTTPS, mail-authentication and safety checks we could verify, each with its source, so you can decide for yourself.
Who owns 1-800-balloons.com?
Nobody has completed AboutUs's owner verification for 1-800-balloons.com. That's true of most sites here — it isn't itself a warning sign.

AboutUs has not vetted this site. Everything below is what we could measure automatically. Anything you do on the site — paying, sharing personal details, downloading — is between you and the site, not AboutUs.
Current facts
Latest available measurements; dated entries retain their dates. These are measurements, not an endorsement of the site.
latest result
Domain registered Aug 13, 1998 — 28 years old.
latest result
Registrar on record: GoDaddy.com, LLC — unchanged since AboutUs began tracking (Sep 3, 2026).
We withhold an authority number until independent evidence (global rank, link-graph presence) has accrued. The facts we do have about this site are shown below — we'd rather say “not enough signals yet” than invent a low score.
Safety evidence
No unexpired threat-feed result; name-similarity check available (recorded about 70 days ago); 3/3 transport and email checks available (oldest recorded about 70 days ago). This is evidence coverage, not a probability that a website is safe.
