Lately I've been fascinated finding crypto phishing related website. So I wrote this simply guide on how to report them if ever you find one. Internet Explorer:1. Click on the Settings Icon 2. Select Safety then click on Report unsafe website 3. Click I think this is a phishing site 4. Then follow the instructions 5. Click Submit Firefox:1. Go to Help 2. Then select Report Deceptive Site.. 3. Then enter the phishing website on the URL textbox 4. Click I'm not a robot 5. Put some Comments (Optional) 6. Click Submit Report Google Chrome1. Go to url: https://safebrowsing.google.com/safebrowsing/report_phish/?hl=en2. Enter the phishing site on the URL textbox 3. Click I'm not a robot 4. Write down comments on Additional details about the phishing violation (Optional) 5. Click Submit Report Alternatively, you can also report phishing sites to the following: 1. US-CERT - mailto: phishing-report@us-cert.gov2. Symantec - https://symsubmit.symantec.com/3. Microsoft - https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/wdsi/support/report-unsafe-site4. Netcraft - https://report.netcraft.com/report5. Anti-Phishing Working Group (APWG) - mailto: reportphishing@apwg.orgYou can also used domain and IP look up tools to search for the phishing site Registrar and report the abuse to them so that the website will be taken down immediately. 1. https://who.is/2. http://research.domaintools.com/

This is very informative.
It is sad that this feature is unkown to many people. If everyone used that button in every phising, the web would be much cleaner.
I believe this is a great way to keep the web safer. We all do our part.

To be honest, I never knew that these browsers supports this kind of feature where you can report a phishing site. This means that the phishing sites will be blocked. This will lessen the phishing sites out there. It can't be help that there will be another phishing sites. It's not only in crypto world have phishing sites but also online games and more.

Thanks for the info, just want to add something, if you receive a phishing link directly to your email you can also directly report it from there. I am using gmail for sure other email providers have this option too like yahoo. This image is just for example:

I also found this website about cryptocurrency where you can also report such phishing websites or scam websites: https://cryptoscamdb.org/It is former https://etherscamdb.info/. It's quite good since they are more likely focus on cryptocurrencies. Btw, also much useful is what OP said on the last part of his first post, reporting it to domain registrar. Since they can take down the website as soon as possible once the website found guilty.

TravelMug, thank you for the guide post that gives me steps to investigate sites and report them if they are phishing.
I know any report from us will be "a sand in a desert" but without report contributions, the world will be burried by phishing sites.

I am not surprised that browsers have this feature where you can report phishing sites and how to report phishing sites. When I still don't know cryptocurrency I have know what phishing site is already because of game where a player create a site that looks like the real one and the goal is to steal my username and password.

Yes, not all people are actually checking what you can do with the browser used and would only surf and install browser extension without knowing those feature that you can report a phishing sites. I am glad that op created this thread for making us know that we can also report phishing sites too.

Not many people understand it, cybersecurity and protection are important as much as the Internet, Bitcoin, and Blockchain technology altogether. Thank you for this thread.

Yes, you are right, that's why I wrote this guide to really help others there, specially those newbies that are still just starting their journey. And now more than ever, we really need to be very careful as the attacks are ramping up because obviously the market is on a bull run and criminals wanted to trap us with those phishing and fake sites around. So as a community we need to be vigilant and then reports sites that we discover and found.

This post is extremely helpful and informative.
I had actually no idea that you can use your web browser to report a phising website. I only knew that you need to go to Google or Bing to report them.
I am assuming using the browser reporting link these websites will get reported to all major search engines.
Thanks for sharing.

As far as I know reports do not affect search results, but in case the report is marked as "good" anyone who visits the phishing link gets the message that the site is potentially dangerous - deceptive, see this link. Of course, this is just a warning that some users ignore and still choose to visit the site - but some people simply can't be helped because they are the biggest danger to themselves.
