Make sure the resulting /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist does not contain entries that you consider untrustworthy before syncing or updating with pacman.

The question is, how should I know if a mirror is trustworthy or not?

Personally I use reflector like so:

reflector --verbose --country "United States" -l 200 -p http --sort rate --save /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist
