   • Record Name: _phishingdb
   • Record Value: antiphish-5193b4b86e3e4f0420aab23d9a37e199954d6d96

2. Wait for DNS propagation (this may take a few minutes to a few hours).

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

Important Notes

• Verification does not guarantee whitelisting. The Phishing.Database team will review your report after verifying ownership, but the decision to whitelist depends on further investigation and analysis.
• If the record cannot be set or you need alternative methods of verification, please contact us at [email protected] - preferably from the domain's official email address.

How to Check the TXT Record ?

You can verify that the TXT record is properly set using:

• Online tools like MXToolBox TXT Lookup.
• The command line:

  dig TXT _phishingdb.example.com
  

Thank you for your cooperation! We will address your issue as soon as possible after verification.

Can I please have an update? This is critical, and we need your help on this.

[arp-joy]

I understand that the URLs below are currently classified as Phishing and Other Frauds. However, I would like to respectfully request a reconsideration of this classification or the potential unblocking of our domain

1. https://qrcodes.pro/
2. https://qr-codes.io/
3. https://qr.tapnscan.me/
4. https://linkpages.pro/

We are a QR code generator company (uniqode.com) supporting over 50k businesses. Unfortunately, we encounter malicious users creating harmful URLs, but we have systems in place to detect and block such activity immediately.

Your security solution seems to be blocking our entire domain instead of the specific malicious URLs generated by these bad actors. This is causing significant disruption to our legitimate business operations and our customers.

We would greatly appreciate it if you could re-evaluate the classification and consider unblocking our domain while continuing to block any specific malicious URLs that you detect.

how is example.com involved??

please edit OP to one domain per line surrounded by back tics ```

[arp-joy]

@spirillen, what does example.com mean, and where is it mentioned? I have provided all the required details in the note.

I would really appreciate it if this could be fixed on priority.

[arp-joy]

@spirillen I've made the change. Can you please let me know what additional details you need to resolve this?

We really need this fixed as soon as you can.

[spirillen]

We really need this fixed as soon as you can.

Then, why haven't you test up the TXT records for any of the domains in a week??
