Symantec has announced the opening of the Symantec Phish Report Network to consumers worldwide. The Symantec Phish Report Network allows consumers to submit and receive fraudulent Web site addresses for antiphishing solutions, according to Symantec.

How it Works

“Computer users who suspect they have received a phishing e-mail with a fraudulent Web site address can go to the Symantec Phish Report Network website and submit the URL to Symantec. After reviewing the URL to confirm it is fraudulent, it is entered into the Symantec Phish Report Network.

Member companies and organizations, such as the NCFTA, can then utilize the data to help in the fight against phishing and prevent other consumers from accessing the Web site and providing their confidential data to fraudsters.” [source]
