Steps to follow after receiving Phishing

Phishing” generally refers to a variety of web based scams that make use of an illegitimate website which passes itself off as being that of a targeted financial institution together with associated data collection points (including web based email accounts) in order to deceive the account holders of the financial institution into revealing their personal information, including but not limited to their credit or debit account numbers, checking account information, social security numbers, or banking account passwords. Once these account holder credentials are collected, they can then be used to commit wire fraud or other similar activities of a criminal nature.

Once you received Phishing Report, your service will be suspended by Abuse department and you will be notified through the Abuse report which contains Phishing content of your IP address or domain. Then you have to respond to the abuse report with mentioning the proper usage of subscribed web hosting services. After that Abuse team will investigate on the issue and respond you back with proper action.

We request you to take appropriate action to ensure that the reported content is removed and/or the reported activity is ceased before the following deadline: [ 02 hours as per IST]


Please note that failure to take timely action may, without any further warning, result in an IP block of the reported IP address or a complete suspension and/or termination of your account with ScopeHosts

If you feel that the notification is not valid, or if you need assistance from someone in the Abuse Prevention department, please contact us to [email protected] and [email protected]
