HTTP > URL Access Control > URL Blocking > Via Pattern File (Phish) tab

One of the most dangerous types of Internet threat is "phishing"—a rapidly growing threat wherein malicious hackers (and even organized crime) send out millions of fraudulent email messages designed to fool users into submitting personal information on a bogus site. The criminals collect information such as credit card and social security, numbers, bank accounts, and logon credentials.

New phish and other disease vectors appear often and can be very hard to identify (usually, the only thing bogus in the solicitation is the underlying URL a "friendly" hyperlink leads to. If you or your clients suspect a mail of being phish, we encourage you to submit the message (including the URL) to Trend Micro.

To send a suspect email or URL to Trend Micro (see top of page for path):

• Phish URL—Enter the URL of the suspect site. The prefix http:// is assumed if not specified.
