Reporting In-Game Selling of items
Hi Niantic,
I would like to report a site that's selling in-game items outside of the Ingress App.
please see https://codesevenhack.net/

As above I've had two of these since Saturday
I received one just now, this time from a different ENL account. Screenshot enclosed.
I tried reporting inappropriate in-game behaviour from the support page, but that page does not work well with iPad. I can't see what I type because the keyboard overlay blocks the input field, and it's impossible to scroll the page up because the input field is at the very bottom of the page.
This account is apparentlycreated as a throwaway account; level 1 account with no game activity.
Chalk another one
About the only thing Ingress can do is filter the text (and that becomes it's own headache)
Looks like Niantic is going to have to get in the filter business...
These guys are relentless
why niantic dont shutdown this website selling bot items ???
Maybe because it's foolishly? you know how many such sites? Close one, - another will appear. this is russian guys here for 5 years lol
only solution to this problem is to automatically block such bots or adding a filter
sellers in pogo a lot more, it is obvious that closing such sites will not help in situation
Agreed. I block and report one and another pops up. 😠
spammer not banned still ?
The only way to stop them is to not buy anything from them. There’s obviously a demand for their supply.

Niantic, your lack of action supports this. We wish you cared.
i doubt many % platers buy from this bot sellers.. they have been quiet for years now why they suddenly start spamming in comm ?? nobody really buys must be a very small minority of dishonest players then.....

You need to send a report!
Strange, I haven't received any messages like this!
I have reported as spam and banned several of these sellers who appeared in Chat, where that is possible, but like some of these comments, the last 2 have been in Alerts, where that is not possible. I thought players didn't have access to post to Alerts, so is this a hack of the game that needs different treatment from Niantic?
isnt it in alert if the message is sent very far away or something ?
Good job @C7HxIU4EBTS2 and @C7HxC5XWJ2N7
Goes to show that Niantic has their hands full in handling these bad actors @NianticCasey @NianticBrian
Got one for my area, CodeSevenHack.net second time this week man..
Please do something @NianticBrian @NianticCasey
Still from official C7H channel
Short and sweet, they promised not to spam anymore, because it can't be fixed,
spam of this "type" can exist for a long time since it bypasses existing comm filters.... :|
NianticBrian promised to fix it, but never did it ..
I dont see how spamming innocent users that have zero interest to pay money to illegal third party item sellers will solve anything ?
