Wait, can you really email the domain admin? Sounds weird.

I definitely recall that reporting to the FTC is a valid option, but I wonder if sending an email to the domain admin actually does anything useful.

I practiced a similar question where closing the account was one of the options, but I feel like it should be a last resort.

I think forwarding the spam to the ISP is important too, but I’m a bit confused about whether contacting the domain administrator actually helps.
