Google Reporting that FastmailUserContent is a phising site

I'm receiving errors saying that fastmail user content is a phishing site using google chrome. Anybody else?

Yep & it makes it pretty much impossible to read email in Chrome.

Same here. For Mystakill, I was able to tell my Chrome that I wanted to go to the link anyway (I forget the exact wording, but it was near the "Safety" link at the bottom). Now my Chrome will show it, but it still starts the link with "Dangerous." I haven't been on the forums for ages. Does still FM monitor it, or do we need to let them know directly?

I tried clicking through the Details link, but it didn't have an option to proceed. I ended up turning off Safe Browsing temporarily, until this can be resolved. I've also submitted Google's dispute form for the URL.

I wish I could remember which link/options I pressed to go ahead, sorry.

I went ahead and opened a ticket at FM, and also provided a link to this thread.

Same for me

I have the same problem on Google Chrome => it is still possible to read the emails by clicking on "details" (bottom left), then "visit this unsafe site", then you get another "RED" screen, and once again, you click on "details" (bottom left), and then "visit this unsafe site", and you can read your emails normally until the end of the session.

I can read the text of the mails when accessing https://www.fastmail.com using Firefox, but the images are not displayed.

No problem accessing https://www.fastmail.com using Edge.

No problem reading the emails using MS Outlook.

Same here with lastest version.
Please use the detail button and report a problem
Say that you stop using Chrome until the problem is fixed.

Yes, that sounds like what I did. Hope it helps Mystakill and others.

Strange, because for me, it's also filtering fastmailcontent on Firefox. I wonder if my employer is using Google DNS..?

The problem with Fastmail is fixed now for me
However I can't reach emaildiscussions.com using Chrome.

I'm reading and responding here via Chrome right now. I can do so on both an iOS device (iPad and iPhone) or a Windows 10 PC. I'm using Chrome version 70.

My guess is that a networking issue (probably on your PC or local network) is preventing Chrome from discovering this site.

What happened, and what they are doing to try to prevent it in the future:
