One account that I've seen (but not received anything from) on Mastodon dot World has already been nuked, so their admins are finally paying attention

@stux one of the predictable issues with all this verification bullshit was fake verifications… annoying.

@stux Thanks. I had two of these show up this afternoon. I didn’t see the point, so I blocked them. Sounds like I made the right call

@stux
what about #GazaVerified ? -
@stux
what about #GazaVerified ?@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.

@chris__martin @stux Which is hilarious on the face of it. Of all the places to go to 'monetize your content' Mastodon ain't it.

@stux@mstdn.social arguably they are failing to act like "staff" too, anyone who actually understands how fedi instances are hosted should immediately recognize the scam I saw earlier

@stux@mstdn.social #sharkey and #lemmy instances will not ask you to verify too, ever.

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.
As always, fedi.tips has this covered
