abwhose 
The simplest way to find the correct place to report a domain for abuse.
$ abwhose phishing-mcphishface.com
Report abuse to domain registrar:
Email: [email protected]
Report abuse to host:
HostPhish: Submit this form - https://wehostphish.biz/dev/null.php
Never again send an abuse report via email only to get a response days later saying:
Sorry, we only take abuse reports through this online form: https://reallyslow.com/new-report
Instead use abwhose
and always send your abuse reports to the correct place the first time.
Installation
brew install bradleyjkemp/formulae/abwhose
Pre-filling abuse email reports
abwhose
can automatically open your email client pre-filled with a template of your choice.
To use this feature just:
- Create an email template file somewhere on your filesystem (see below for an example).
- Set the environment variable
ABWHOSE_MAILTO_TEMPLATE
to the path to you template file.
An example template you could use is:
mailto:{{.recipient}}?subject=Phishing site: {{.domain}}&body=To whom it may concern,
Please take down this phishing site: {{.domain}}
Thanks
