To submit a report to yahoo about an offending auction, do the following:

1. Click on the auction link that is posted on MatrixWatch, this will take you directly to the Neighborhood Watch section for the auction.

2. Then, click the drop-down box, and select "Possible Terms of Service Violation"

3. Then put any comments, I usually put "Possible matrix scam, selling info, AUP violation".

4. Click submit.

Important Notes: You need to have a valid yahoo account with at least 1 feedback in order to be part of the neighborhood. This could be easily accomplished by anyone wishing to help out, please PM me and we'll get it done..

The second, and sometimes more efficient way to report auction abuse on Yahoo is to take the Yahoo Auctions list that is posted on MatrixWatch, and place it in an email to auctions-abuse@yahoo-inc.com. Explain that these auctions are selling information to matrix schemes and they will generally be closed.
