PhishFort flagged your domain for phishing. We handle the removal.
About the vendor
PhishFort is an anti-phishing and brand protection company that detects phishing attacks targeting brands and assists with taking down malicious websites. Their threat intelligence identifies domains impersonating legitimate brands for credential harvesting, and they work directly with hosting providers, registrars, and certificate authorities to action takedowns. PhishFort's data is consumed by downstream security products and browser security systems.
PhishFort doesn't just flag domains. They actively pursue takedowns. A listing triggers both blocking in security products and active outreach to your hosting provider and registrar requesting suspension. Even if a flag is in error, you may receive suspension notices from your infrastructure providers before you're aware of the issue.

PhishFort retired its public GitHub blocklist in May 2025 and does not publish a false-positive address. It states that removals happen via GitHub pull requests or email, but no current address is listed. Options: clear upstream sources first (Google Safe Browsing, PhishTank, OpenPhish, URLhaus), which feeds often copy; ask VirusTotal via its contact form for the engine's contact; use any official contact that turns up.
Do not send reports to guessed or unofficial addresses.

We check that your site is clean, send PhishFort the evidence it needs through its official channel and follow up until the flag is gone. You only pay once the removal is confirmed, and the full process for 90+ vendors is explained on our website blacklist removal page.
Picked for the same vendors and the same kind of problem.
