False Positive – graffitistreet.com – Manual Review Request

Hello Avast Team,

I am requesting a manual review of:

graffitistreet[.]com

Avast Web Shield / Secure Browser is currently blocking the website with an incorrect security classification.

We have submitted the domain through the official false-positive reporting process three times over the past two weeks, but the classification remains unchanged.

GraffitiStreet is an established UK art gallery website. The site contains normal account registration and login functionality for its customers and does not impersonate third-party websites or collect credentials on behalf of another service.

Could someone from Avast Threat Labs please manually review the domain and correct the classification?

Domain: graffitistreet[.]com
Detection shown by Avast: Phishing

Thank you.

First, check your website is confirmed clean of malware using:

If confirmed clean by both of those, report a False Positive form to Avast using: Choose Your Sample Submission Type | Avast

Give avast at least 2 working days to process. You will not get a reply from Avast, so you will need to check for no further alert again after that.

I read that you have already submitted FP forms to avast, but have not said what malware checks you have done prior to that.
If some malware does exist, then that may be why avast still throw up warnings. I have not accessed your website myself. However, avast do not normally reply to FP reports regardless of outcome.

Note. I am not an Avast Team member, just another user.

Thank you for the reply.

We have already completed the recommended security checks previously, including VirusTotal and Sucuri, and no issues were identified.

We have also submitted the Avast false-positive form on three separate occasions. The first submission was made more than two weeks ago, and the classification is still unchanged.

At this stage, we have exhausted the standard reporting process, so we are hoping an Avast team member can manually review the domain and advise on the next step.

Thank you again for your help.

First, I’m an Avast user and not an Avast Team member.

These are the VirusTotal results for the domain 0/90 on a fresh scan

I will try and draw some Avast Team input into this matter.

Hi @gsrosh,

Thank you for raising this!

The reported domain was checked, and based on the findings, the detection was removed. The website is now marked as clean in the Avast database. This change may take up to 1 hour to take full effect. Please accept my apology for the inconvenience caused.

If the situation persists after 1 hour, please update the Avast virus database and try again.

Thank you, @DavidR, for highlighting this topic.

Hello,

Thank you for resolving the false positive affecting graffitistreet[.]com
Avast has confirmed that the site is clean and removed the detection.

Could you please remove my support thread from public view? The resolved report is still appearing in AI-generated results and may give people the mistaken impression that the website remains unsafe.

Thank you

Generally the posts remain.

If picked up by AI generated results they should also be able to also see it is has Resolved.

That said I believe you can also flag it as resolved being the originator of the Topic. I don’t believe I have the permissions to flag as Resolved.

Thank you for marking this resolved.

I am Rosh Boroumand, founder of GraffitiStreet and the original poster. To clarify, graffitistreet[.]com was incorrectly flagged by Avast. Our security checks found no issues, and following its own review, Avast confirmed that the website is clean in its database and removed the incorrect warning.

Access through Avast is now working normally, and the matter is resolved. Thank you to everyone who helped.
