Question to the Department for Digital, Culture, Media & Sport:
To ask Her Majesty's Government, for the last period for which records are available, what proportion of phishing incidents reported to report@phishing.gov.uk resulted in (1) an email address being successfully blocked, (2) links to malicious websites being removed, or (3) both.
Since launch in April 2020 the number of reports received by the NCSC’s Suspicious Email Reporting Service (SERs) stands at more than 6,500,000 with the removal of more than 50,500 scams and 97,500 web addresses (URLs). In June there were up to 7000 individual URLs first identified by SERs submissions which were taken down.
Reporting figures are updated monthly on the NCSC website alongside information on SERS and protection against phishing can be found at Phishing: how to report to the NCSC
