Hi,
I got an advance-fee fraud spam today, with a Gmail.com address in the
body. This is a first for me. As usual, the reporting of these manually
is always convoluted administratively, since standard abuse approaches
state that if the "headers don't include gmail.com links then the spam
didn't originate here..."
So, I larted "abuse at gmail.com" with full headers. I got an auto-reply
that mentioned reporting the abuse using a web site. I navigated through
the pages, and found the best place (in my opinion) to report
advance-fee (419) scams that include Gmail.com addresses:
