Report a link

How to report phishing, malware, spam or illegal content in a short link, and what happens next.

Open the report form

It is the link product's public form: no account needed. It opens on another page.

What to include

So we can act

  • The full short URL (for example https://…/abc123).
  • The reason: phishing, malware, spam, illegal or other.
  • Details (up to 2,000 characters) and, only if you want us to be able to reply, an email.

The form address also accepts a POST with JSON or form data.

What happens next

What exists today, plainly

  • Automatic: if 5 distinct people (by IP fingerprint) report the same link as phishing or malware within 24 hours, the link goes “under review”: it stops redirecting and shows a review page. The threshold is configurable; other reasons wait for a person.
  • A person: moderation can suspend the link (it answers 410 and its owner cannot reactivate it) or the whole account, or dismiss the report. The owner can appeal a held link.
  • Warning: if a destination is flagged unsafe by the safety check, a warning page is shown with no continue button.

Timelines

There is no committed response time

We do not publish a response time or an SLA today, because there is none we can meet: report moderation is done with administrative commands (there is no moderation screen yet), there is no individual acknowledgement to the reporter, and the form answers the same for a new report as for a repeated one. The only measurable time is the automatic one described above. A timeline will be published here once there is a process with an owner and capacity, and it is one of the conditions for opening the free plan.

The Acceptable Use and Abuse Policy (v1.0) sets a target of a first review within 2 business days and 5 business days for appeals: a commitment of the policy that we have not measured yet and that must be met before the service opens. See also the Privacy Policy on report data.

Form limits

Against abuse of the form itself

5 reports per IP per hour, 300 per hour overall, a 16 KB maximum body and a honeypot field for bots. The same IP reporting the same link counts once. The IP is stored as a keyed hash (HMAC), not in the clear.

If there is immediate risk to a person, also report it to the affected service and to the authorities in your country: this form is not an emergency channel.
