Dear Team,
I am reaching out to bring your attention to a false positive warning associated with links hosted on Twitter's URL shortener, https://t.co/. As you know, https://t.co/ is an integral service provided by Twitter, a globally recognized and reputable company.
It has come to my attention that links shortened through this platform are being flagged as potentially risky or associated with phishing. This assessment is clearly inaccurate and could lead to unnecessary disruption for users and businesses relying on Twitter’s services.
While automated detection systems are valuable, they are not infallible. In this instance, I believe there has been a misjudgment in the criteria used to flag https://t.co/. Twitter has robust security measures in place to prevent misuse of its services. Thus, labeling its links as risky undermines the integrity of a widely trusted platform and creates unnecessary concern for end-users.
I kindly request a review of your assessment and the removal of the risk designation for https://t.co/ from your database. Addressing this issue will help ensure that your users receive accurate and reliable warnings without impeding legitimate usage of trusted platforms.
Thank you for your time and for considering this matter. I am happy to provide additional details if required. I look forward to your prompt resolution of this issue.
Best regards,
