    After researching the website you sent out, I am granting your appeal and removing the tag with the understanding it was not actually a phishing site, but a referral scam site. As such, I do not believe you pose a danger to the community.

    In the future, please be careful about links you send to friends. Although it's highly unlikely you were knowingly complicit, the link you spammed was in fact a scam site, and Steam users have occasionally been banned by Valve for spam when these links are found. You should only send links, especially to your friends, that you know are legitimate.
