False Positive Phishing
« on: October 22, 2019, 04:23:08 AM »
Hello,

I just dealt with this a few weeks ago and it caused a huge headache. My site hxtps://streamyard.com is showing a warning for phishing again -- a few weeks ago the same thing happened and avast/avg removed the warning and said it was a false positive. Please help.

Here it is not being flagged: https://phishcheck.me/49433/details
Is it the hidden iFrame being flagged: <iframe src="hxtps://www.googletagmanager.com/ns.html?id=GTM-5KG4PZD" height="0" width="0" style="display:none;visibility:hidden"></iframe>
as it is also blocked by uMatrix. Also is this blocked in the code: htxps://www.googletagmanager.com/gtm.js?id=%27+i+dl;f.parentNode.insertBefore(j,f);%2013:%20%C2%A0})(window,document,

See: https://aw-snap.info/file-viewer/?protocol=secure&ref_sel=GSP2&ua_sel=ff&chk-cache=&fs=1&tgt=c3R9e3xteXx9Iy5eXW0%3D~enc

Wait again form a final verdict from an avast team member.
