Most Active UsersOut of the more than 20,000 members of the PhishTank community, these members were the most active in October 2015. Note: One member account (PhishReporter) represents an organization, not an individual.
Phishing URLsIn October, 261 phishes (2% of valid phishes that month) used an IP address (i.e. http://12.34.56.78) and 11,405 (or 98%) used a domain name (i.e. http://example.com).
Networks That Host PhishesThe servers hosting verified phishes are under the responsibility of these networks. PhishTank knows this because it traces phishing Web sites to an IP address. These are the organizations responsible for those IP addresses.
Popular TargetsThese are the brands that were fraudulently represented in phishing emails. Targets are identified by the submitter at the time of submission, or determined by PhishTank's software to the best of its ability. The majority of phishes are not categorized with a target.
