Since they are on the same server as me mydomain.com/~thatuser/phishing.html is accessible. They are simply using other peoples domains to generate links instead of using theirphishingsite.com The problem is that the website in question is on a shared server and other users on the same server (same ip) are using mydomain.com to promote their phishing sites.

Ex: they use YOURDOMAIN.com to promote their PHISHING WEBSITE.COM by using this simple URL to send users : YOURDOMAIN.COM/~phishing/file.html Any help would be greatly appreciated.
