I tried 3 times to submit a false positive on https://live.paloaltonetworks.com/t5/virustotal/bd-p/VirusTotal_Discussions

My post follows the format below:

File Hash: <SHA256 hash>

Link to Virustotal report for the file: <link>

Current VirustTotal Verdict: <verdict>

Description: <description>

The administrator rejected my post 3 times . I don't know what is wrong? Thank you!

Hi @woeruw ,

Apologies for that! Sometimes our automated filters accidentally flag a post as spam. This was clearly a false positive, so I've restored it from quarantine. Our AV team is now ready to review your post:
