Google's This site may harm your computer alerts for server admins ?

| Yesterday I recieved a notice from Apple saying that a website of a new customer who passed all of our fraud checks including phone call was a phishing attempt.
When I went to see it, google had already flaged it as harmefull and I was wondering if there was a service or a tool so I could be warned as soon as google flag's a website on our shared hosting server IP as dangerous.
I suppose browsers must have access to an api, but that api only works for full urls's...
Any suggestions ? Google provides this service to protect users, surely the best protection for these users would be for the hosts to be warned quickly in order to intervine.

| Webhosts do scan the servers and accounts on regular intervals for malware/malicious/phishing websites. There are many webhosts who are proactive & remove such files from the server. They send a notification as well.
Google webmaster tool has this functionality as well. Have a check at https://support.google.com/webmasters/answer/163633 once.

| If you have your own ASN, then you can sign up to receive alerts for any IP addresses on that ASN at http://www.google.com/safebrowsing/alerts/

| There are some scripts around that you can run periodically to verify whether any of the sites on your server are listed with Google. You just need to run them every few hours to check.
