Where to report phishing?

is there any government office dealing with phishing and does anyone have an address to report it?
(you'd think there'd be... there's a bunch of offices dealing with porn, which is innocuous)

This is pretty good but BV probably knows a better site. :winkwink:

Maybe the FTC?

You could also try the registrar, godaddy will yank their domain.

There are a bunch of offices that deal with porn? Please share some.

In gmail you can report directly to gmail. Paypal also has a way to alert them of attempted phishing attempts.

Often it is not the domain owner.
I got a few letters from paypal over the course of 2 days saying my url is phishing. They gave me the presumption that I was not the one responsible, which I was not. Found out a couple of people I host for had some form hacked and the hackers placed a paypal phishing page on it.

Here ya go .....
