in case anyone is wondering:
- Open the app, and select the 'Shared' folder at the bottom
- Find the spam content, click the three dots to open a menu
- At the bottom, hit 'Report abuse', select an option, and confirm.
So far, I've only been able to do this one-by-one, though I receive a couple of these shared docs every day.
- duskwuff 4y agoThat only works if the document is still shared with you. If the spammers are halfway clever, they're removing access immediately after granting it, so the victim can't actually open the document to report it as abusive.
- thematrixturtle 4y agoBut what would be the point of doing that? They can't sell you whatever it is they're trying to sell unless you open the doc.
- lern_too_spel 4y agoI received a lot of spam share notifications on Google Drive, and there is no spam in the Shared with Me view in the app. I don't know what their game is, but this is happening. It also doesn't make sense that Google Drive doesn't remove the notification after the file is no longer shared with me.
