What are the subjects of the false-positive (domains, URLs, or IPs)?

Why do you believe this is a false-positive?

This is a click tracking URL for sendgrid. One of our platform users had their account hacked and the actor sent out a large number of spam emails via our platform.

We have worked with sendgrid to deactive the malicious redirects and the compromised accounts has been suspended. Please advise if additional action is required.
