Using the ellipsis (3 dots) below the toot, it brings up a menu which includes Report. It can also be done from the ellipsis on their account page.

@stux Just reported one myself. Yeeesh. Where’d they all suddenly spring up from?

@stux to paraphrase Australia's "my.id": on the Fediverse, the way I post verifies me

@poisonpunk @stux that's a separate and (I believe) legitimate thing people are trying to manage.
I see a lot of #gazaverified people acting kinda spammy, though, but I am never sure it's not just a misunderstanding of how to use the platform or sheer desperation.

@stux
what about #GazaVerified ?@poisonpunk @stux That’s very specific. And we never reach out to anyone to ask them to get verified.
(And I wish we didn’t need it.)

@stux Another attack vector enabled by the current "ID verification" craze.

@stux You can verify your account if you wish but that process is totally up to you. Nobody will ask you to do it and you control all aspects of the process yourself.
