It shows that from a message, you can click Block and Report Now, which prevents the person from contacting you and from bidding on your items in timed online auctions, while they may still contact and bid on other sellers. It also notes that built-in mechanisms recognize 99% of these phishing-style attacks, but the report feature submits the user to admins for follow-up and possible account and device level blocking using signals like browser and IP address. The Loom recommends doing both block and report, and indicates the same action is available from a buyer’s member detail page and is reflected in past reports and unblocking options.
