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

Why do you believe this is a false-positive?

I believe this is a false-positive because we are using this company's product to conduct employee surverys and a customized survey link is being reported as phishing

How did you discover this false-positive(s)?

Other (Please fill out the next box)

Where did you find this false-positive if not listed above?

I discovered this false-positive by using this company's product to conduct employee surverys and a customized survey link is being reported as phishing. I believe that Comcast is using the Phishing Database as a source.

Have you requested a review from other sources?

I have requested a review from CyRadar, Comcast, and Bitdefender. CyRadar has already updated their phishing result on virustotal. I have already contacted the company directly to inform them of this as well.

Do you have a screenshot?

Additional Information or Context

I have also noticed that the domain netigate.se redirects to netigate.net is not listed as phishing. Also, www.netigate.se does not get marked as phishing either by VirusTotal

Ah, we don't own the domain, and I'm not affiliated with the company. If the company Netigate reaches out to me, I'll let them know the steps to take to resolve the issue. This can be closed if needed
