I want to invest in a mutual fund and wanted to do it online. I dindt want to send my money to false website. The website appears legit but I guess I just want some assurance.

Vanguard is one of the three largest mutual fund companies in the world (varies between them, Fidelity, and American Funds), they have been around for decades and have nearly $1 Trillion under management. It is probably the best place to go for someone starting out.
I used to do consulting for them, while it doesn't seem like the best place to work (low salaries and numbers on the cubicles), they are one of the best mutual fund companies.

Yes, it is. In fact a Morgan Stanley stock-broker friend recommended that I open an account with them.
I didn't use them, because I already had an account at T. Rowe Price, otherwise I would have.
