""Castlecops, a volunteer-run organization that has made tremendous waves in
fighting phishing, announced a sweepstakes to celebrate their five-year
anniversary. A number of security vendors, including Symantec, have
contributed prizes to the contest. In addition, Castlecops receives a list
of verified phishing sites from Symantec through the Phish Report Network.""


CastleCops hosts the Phishing Incident Reporting and Termination (PIRT)
project, which identifies phishing sites and helps get them shut down:
