 * You can try adding it to the referrer blocking in advanced blocking like this:
   **\*
   scamadvisor.com\* ** and see if that helps. Ultimately you may need to watch 
   your serveer logas for what ip hits you when they scan but if results are cached
   on their servers, this might not even be possible. You may have to go a request
   they remove it as a false positive. I scanned my personal site and watched this
   ip adress come back as theirs. They mioght have arange of IPs but at least this
   is a start: ** 74.50.56.73**
 * I’ll leave this open in case the community has a better idea

 * I don’t think there’s much that can be done about this. I looked at Scamadvisor,
   its pulling publically available information like whois and IPs. Ran a few sites
   through it, they all get 100% “trust” even with private domains by proxy domains.
 * Never heard of them, and they don’t show up on Google for my sites or my client’s
   sites results, so they’re pretty much ignorable.
