A new online service promises to send an e-mail alert when a Web site is 
copied and possibly used in a phishing scam.

The free service, dubbed PhishRegistry.org, is run by e-mail security 
company CipherTrust. Web site owners can use the service to monitor 
abuse of their brand, while consumers can submit URLs they use, such as 
a bank Web site, to the list of those monitored, CipherTrust said in a 
statement Tuesday.
