If I see obvious spam - I want to answer that it is a scam - should I do so?

Posts in which there are phone numbers, are shared by scammers, if I add a comment in which it is [warning that this is a scam] (such a post will be useless for a spammer who is certainly a man), using this platform.

I apologize for not responding to my earlier inquiries, but I have technical problems.

Of course, reporting to the Moderators at the same time is necessary, is it a good idea?

The post should be reported so that moderators can deal with it rather than adding more content to the spam posting.

Once reported it will get deleted and so posting extra stuff would end up just being a waste of your time. The best response is to report it.

Thanks for your assistance in helping to manage the spam and scams.
