What happens to your report
- The site is checked straight away against our lists and for the usual warning signs, without opening it.
- One of us reviews it, so that an honest site is never blocked by mistake.
- If it's harmful, it's added to the blocklists at their next update (every four hours): the lists behind our Website Scam Checker and the Web Protection feature of Tidy My Mac.
Report it to others too
- Google Safe Browsing protects Chrome, Safari and Firefox users: report phishing at safebrowsing.google.com/safebrowsing/report_phish/.
- If a company is being impersonated, tell it: most banks and big brands have a phishing address, such as reportphishing@apple.com.
- If you lost money, report it to your bank at once, and to the police or your country's fraud reporting service.
