Zusammenfassung:A method and system for tracking potentially fraudulent activities associated with one or more web sites is disclosed. The system includes a fraud tracking server connected to a fraud tracking database. The fraud tracking server includes a communications module to facilitate the exchange of data between the server and multiple client devices. The fraud tracking server receives data from one or more client devices that identifies a potential spoof site. The fraud tracking server also includes control logic to generate a spoof site tracking record in the fraud tracking database. The spoof site tracking record includes the data identifying the potential spoof site. After the spoof site tracking record has been created, the fraud tracking server notifies an administrator of the potential spoof site by communicating the data received and stored in the fraud tracking database to an administrator.
