PhishStats
PhishStats crowdsources and republishes a running feed of phishing URLs, screenshots, and detection metadata, giving anyone a free real-time phishing blocklist to query or download. The REST API — now served from api.phishstats.info after moving off its old port-based endpoint — supports complex filter queries against the phishing database and returns JSON records ready to stream into an existing security stack. Anonymous lookups are capped at 50 requests/day per IP; a free registered key raises that to 150/day, with paid tiers for higher volume.
