I use these paths to take it down

* Report to https://safebrowsing.google.com/safebrowsing/report_phish/

* Report to https://www.phishtank.com (account required)

* Use a WHOIS lookup service for the hostname, find who's the registrar and submit an abuse report to them.

I used to regularly report Runescape phishing sites, reporting to the registrar is extremely effective and quite fast
