New client with offer that seems to be a scam

I got an offer from a client named**Edited for community guidelines**, and**Edited for community guidelines**.

I started googling their names and found about this on the website. It's clearly stated that they're not hiring, they stopped answering to my messages when I sent them this and asked more information about the job they posted today.

I shared my resume and my address in order to start the interview with their "manager"**Edited for community guidelines**.

How can I report them so other designers do not fall for this?

Flag the job post as inappropriate and why. Also, someone will see it here and have it removed. Stop all communication with them. And if you can wish them away into the cornfield, please do.
