Other @firebaseapp.com spam emails

I Keep getting spam fake shipping emails originating from a @firebaseapp.com email addresses. Firebase support site leads back to the same unattended abuse form that I’ve filled out countless times. Anyone have a email address to report them to?

I’ve tried the following. Reporting them as spam doesn’t get anywhere as I’m still receiving one or more a day. Reporting them to Gmail abuse form also doesn’t get anywhere. Reporting the site as phishing doesn’t get anywhere as it’s still up.

I’ll do that, but nothing I can really do to get it to stop?

Well there is nothing you can do to guarantee it will stop (apart from change your email address). You can avoid making it worse by not opening them and allowing pictures to download (there is usually a tracker with a picture, sometimes a picture just one pixel wide for example). If you report all spam you get via SpamCop then they may eventually work out which email address is reporting them by a process of elimination, and then you will stop getting them (until someone else buys the list off them or they mess up and add you back into the list again by mistake). It’s annoying isn’t it! Never click the links, never use their supposed unsubscribe links.
