I haven’t noticed a way to report them but I’d sure like one. It’s also unclear how to report them in /m either. I usually file it under ‘scamming’ simply because there is usually hacking involved to acquire the money (closest choice I figured) but it would be nice to have a ‘banhammer this goldseller’ button.

I reported them so far as spam, but scam seems also not wrong. Maybe there should be a direct option to report as goldseller.

Mail has a button in the bottom left corner of the “reading” portion of the mailbox window. If I remember right it looks like a triangle with a exclamation mark in the middle of it. Just like your emergency lights in your car.

Just report them for spamming and move along.

Spam or scam either one works. The main thing is to report them. Realize every one of those kind of accounts is chewing bandwidth the rest of us would like to have for gaming. The sites they run are just doorways to the kind of keylogging trojans no one needs. I will never just ignore those .. I always report them. The account I save just might be yours
