Requesting a review of a blocked link - Safe Links Advanced Threat Protection

We receive several emails from companies that use a particular click counting service that appears to have been flagged as malicious by Advanced Threat Protection. Is there a way for me to request that the links be reviewed to verify that the site is hosting malicious code and if not for the block to be changed?

      Dusting this off, I've got the same question, i'd like to confirm that you are referring to the "Malware Protection Center" (https://www.microsoft.com/security/portal/submission/submit.aspx) -- it seems maybe that is specifically for ATP Safe Attachments, rather than safe links (though maybe I am reading it wrong).

      There is also a place for reporting missed URLs, but I dont see the one specifically for URLs that are for false positives for Safe Links.

        I dont think there's a special place for Safe Links, but I can at least ask :)

      Thank you. I had probably seen that before but forgot it was there. I'm not really sure why Microsoft support could not have pointed me there. I did one final check before sending in the URL's and they are no longer flagged as malicious.
