Comment on Ask HN: How to get a phishing website that steals credentials taken down?

Comments

When I contacted their abuse email, I get an automated message saying my message is ignored because they get a lot of false reports (how convenient!), and redirecting me to another website[0] to report it which requires tons of your personal details, photographic evidence, and all sorts of nonsense. I filled out these forms but they seem to just ignore the report anyway.

I also experienced this multiple times when trying to report scam and phishing sites. Some registrars/hosting services wont respond positively to abuse report ever, then what's the point of abuse email?

I wonder if we could report them to their higher authority (IANA?).
