How to report phising whisper?

Got a phishing wisper https://i.ibb.co/Mc9XT0L/ff14.jpg but I see an option to report RMT only, how to report phishing?

YOu have to file an actual report, it's under the support menu iirc. This scam has been circulating for YEARS and it's never been nipped by SE so I just blacklist the sender and move on now.

Not sure if gil raffles are reportable offenses or not? Please consult the ToS on that matter. If the link was fake or sent you to something shady, then yeah use the in game report feature. Also I'd suggest you hide the character's name, it is seen as naming and shaming.

I report it in-game under harassment since the other categories don't fit.

Its an attempt to get your username and password through a fake website meant to look like the official forums. There are a few threads floating around the forums from people falling for it and getting their account locked by SE

It is an attempt to use a fake website that LOOKS like the FFXIV forums to get your email and passwords. So extremely against TOS, never click an in game forum link ever.

Its quite simple from the URL of the screenshot o see that this is a crude phishing attempt.

Would doing the Right Click RMT report not work as well? In my mind this is RMT behavior as they are trying to get your user info so they can steal your account and use it for RMT.

Just do the right-click report.

To my mind, the actual tickets are more for actual human players doing actual serious harassment and might conceivably warrant discussion with a GM; and the right-click is for a bot program that probably has nobody sitting behind the screen at all, for an account that is likely already-stolen or completely-automated from the get-go.

Even though it's not their stated policy, it appears to be how the GMs actually work. You will never, ever hear from them about a right-click report; but you will ALWAYS get a message from a ticket-report. Even if the body of your ticket is "Hey, this guy named himself after Hitler / rape / a racial slur; just thought you should know, no need to respond" you'll get at least an automated response...

Use Report Harassment in the System/Support Desk/Contact Us menu, add to the report that it's a "stolen account using phishing links"
You should get a response fairly quickly thanking you for the phishing link report and that you can remove the offender from your blacklist if you had added it.

See:

Any unsolicited whispers that give a link get reported for RMT and blacklisted.

FYI, all links are shady...

The first time I got a PM from one of these people, I immediately found it suspicious and shortly after noticed the incorrect domain being used in their supposed link to the forums.

It's just not normal to be advertising an event via PMs as opposed to something less...personal like party finder or shout chat.
