View originalHow to report a Malicious URL without having WSA installed
How do I report a malicious URL without having WSA installed? I had to uninstall WSA due to incompatibility. I have a phishing URL using Social Engineering. It's a fake FB login Screen that was sent to me. Someone on my friend list sent me an email saying I wouldn't believe who got video taped going to the bathroom lol Once you click on this link it takes you to the fake FB login page. Some of my friends have already fallen victim to this. It looks really convincing to the untrained user. It looks just like the real FB login screen.

Are we allowed to post the URL here? It's only a phishing site with no infection detected on the page. Their just using Social Engineering to fool users into believing their page is the actual Facebook login screen.

They will get it. By default, if a previous trouble issue was not 'hard closed' out, the system does bring you to the previous ticket. That will not affect nor delay the Support staff receiving your bad URL submission.
Thank you for submitting it!
Thank you for submitting it!
When I opened the support inbox it opened the same ticket I started months ago about the incompatibility issue I was experiencing. They may never get it. I had to use that ticket to send them the malicious URL
I will send it to them by their support inbox, but I don't expect they will get it in a timely manner that way. Also, Webroot has already addressed the incompatibility issue.

I am not positive, but I believe the best way would be to Submit a Trouble Ticket
