It seems more appropriate to me to start punishing spammers rather than holding platforms accountable for their customer’s behavior.

- untog 7y agoWho is going to punish the scammers if not the platforms?
- mschuster91 7y agoGood luck trying to punish someone in Macedonia, Nigeria or whatever other place that has Internet but no legal support agreement with a Western state.
- nikolay 7y agoGuess what happened - I kept blocking every offender and suddenly Microsoft locked me out of my account for more than 2 weeks. My Outlook, my Xbox, my Office, and many other paid services - gone! Why? Because, according to them, I had hundreds of blocked people! Well, there's no way to report for spam or scam - you can either delete a chat (they can message you again) or block them. At least these are the options on desktop. Skype has my contacts synced - why I don't have an option to block any contact from a person who's not in my contacts?! Or at least put them in second queue like Facebook Messenger does? Or allow messages only from people with verified phone? Of course, Skype is guilty as they don't bother to solve this problem.
