ɹəuəllıʍ ʇɐb Posted October 16, 2007 Report Share Posted October 16, 2007 The 'Report' link can be used to report inappropriate posts, such as forum spam and other undesired material. 'Report' is better than PMing a moderator, because all moderators and admins can see it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nellie2 Posted October 16, 2007 Report Share Posted October 16, 2007 Or you can report it to CastleCops If it's still a live phish they will try to get it taken down Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ɹəuəllıʍ ʇɐb Posted October 17, 2007 Report Share Posted October 17, 2007 Or you can report it to CastleCops If it's still a live phish they will try to get it taken downTrue (or here the short link: http://www.castlecops.com/pirt). The problem for inexperienced users is toeither extract the actual phishing linkor extract the original source data of the message bodyWhen using an email client such as Outlook, Outlook Express, or Thunderbird, the actual phishing link is not visible (just the text on the link, that appears to be a link to the real bank website).Instead of extracting these info and paste it to the PIRT page, you can send the original message (as an attachment) to pirt@castlecops.com (do not copy/paste this address, as it is encoded as Unicode wide characters).
