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

  • su.vc

Why do you believe this is a false-positive?

As the Lead Developer of Pointerpro, I want to address the blacklisting of our short domain, su.vc, in the Phishing-Database. This domain is integral to our platform, which provides secure and professional services for creating and distributing online assessments and surveys.

Pointerpro is a reputable company serving numerous clients worldwide. The su.vc domain is used exclusively for these clients to generate a short link to their assessment. It has a valid HTTPS connection, ensuring security and trustworthiness. It also immediately redirects to s.pointerpro.com. We also offer white-labeling to ensure our clients' branding is reflected through their surveys and emails. As part of this service, emails sent from the platform may use the su.vc domain.

I believe this blacklisting is a false positive, likely stemming from the nature of survey distribution, which is occasionally misinterpreted as phishing activity. However, I can assure you that su.vc is not involved in any malicious or deceptive practices. Its sole purpose is to facilitate the sharing of legitimate surveys for our platform users.

We take security and compliance very seriously and are confident in the integrity of our domain and its use. I kindly request that you review this case and remove su.vc from the blacklist.
