What are the subjects of the false-positive (domains, URLs, or IPs)?

fda.bj

Why do you believe this is a false-positive?

After conducting a thorough analysis, we have not found any evidence of compromise or malicious activity that would justify this categorization as phishing website. As part of our investigation, we reviewed all files hosted on the site and no anomalies were identified. Additionally, we analyzed network logs to detect any suspicious behavior but found nothing unusual. Finally, we submitted the website to external scanners, such as PhishTank which did not detect any threats.

How did you discover this false-positive(s)?

Phishtank

Where did you find this false-positive if not listed above?

    Your Verification ID: antiphish-42a3ef9012824a613b161f08f05ec05d52110b5a

  3. Reply to this issue once the TXT record has been set.
