    Hello *waves*

    If he logged in using the link in chat after he copy and pasted then he never went to a Square Enix site, he only went to the phishers website. So I don't know whether his report actually went through to Square Enix. Maybe send another ticket just in case?

    To report someone in game in the future open the main menu, go to "support desk" and click "contact us"

    So this guy (apparently) knew it was a phishing scam link, logged in using the phishing scam link, and "reported" the scam to the scammers?

    Unbelievable.

    I'm going to assume the victim in question thought that only the "post" in the phishing link was fraudulent, not the link itself.

    Though that in itself is flawed because you don't need to be logged in to view posts on the official forums in the first place.
