Appeal contacts

Choose a channel for the type of detection you want reviewed. Contact availability and acceptance are controlled by the vendor.

How to request a review

These are general preparation steps. The listed contact’s own instructions take priority.

  1. Re-scan the affected item in VirusTotal to confirm that the named engine still detects it.
  2. Open the linked contact or support page and follow its current false-positive submission instructions.
  3. Include the VirusTotal report link, exact indicator, detection name, why you believe the verdict is wrong and any cleanup evidence. Confirm that the team handles your indicator type.
  4. Wait for the vendor’s decision and re-scan after a correction. Keep the case reference for any follow-up.
