How do you report spam to the Moderators?

I've found some weird rubbish on 'welfare' on the thread 'Does anyone know of a rescue needing help with computer work?'

It's made me really annoyed! :o

Sorted... just remember each member only needs to report one of the posts, I've just had about 30 email notifications about one spammer :))

Grrr ... that must be so irritating for you, but the trouble is when we click on that exclamation mark there's no way of knowing if it's already been reported. Sorry if I've ever been guilty of "over-dosing"

No I don't mind lots of reports from different people but today about 5 people had reported every post of the one spammer. For some more prolific spammers that's a whole lot of notifications :))

Oh dear .... yes, you can usually tell if it's the same spammer and I just report it once.
