Hmmm, are you sure, latest VT scan: https://www.virustotal.com/#/url/9122d2afba58b8a8c0f03b3b3d2209caf70c78243cc0334962901ad62c6603ce/detection

It’s still blacklisted on 4 sites. Right now it’s only being flagged via Opera.
How long, if not remedied, till it happens on other browsers ???

With the exception of Phishtank the other three are different scanners, it looks like it is taking time to filter through.

Especially for Phishtank, whom these new entries are possibly using as their reference.

I just rescanned it, still getting the same results.

I looked into feed on that particular day and saw this forum as phishing. However one hour later it was removed. This means that other AVs are not directly connected to feeds that are provided from PhishTank.

Hi, would be interesting to know why the forum got detected as Phishing site in the first place. Any idea…!?

PS: No change in VT scan results as of today.
