Emails and chat from Gold Farmers

So it's barely a week into the game and already i am fed up with the emails (to my Cryptic account email) and the constant zone spam from people selling STO currency.

Devs please do something about these insidious douchbags who ruin MMOs.

I ignore them in chat, and more crop up... they're like freakin' borg cockroaches!

At least keep them out of my in-game email please.

I hope they all get a rash in their private bits.

    How'd you get emails?

    I've had I think one PM about it. I just deleted it.

    The occasional e-mail shows up, but the chat is worse as you can't leave it. Or at least I have not found a way yet.

    Right click the name of the spammer and select spam, this reports the rat to Cryptic and it also places them on ignore.

    i'm getting emails in my "private messages"... same place you get in-game emails and tickets from support.
    They're all for "STO Gold"

    correct you can't "leave" chat, but you can right click on the chat bar (where it has the three tabs) then where you have the multi colored boxes with checks depicting what text type is what color de-select the "zone" chat (very last one on list which is in alpha order) and de select the zone chat which will effectively remove you from the "zone" chat and there by allowing you to ignore the zone chat, granted you may have others in zone you want to talk to in zone, but just invite them to a team and there ya go...oh you can also right click on the persons handel in zone chat and "report spam" them and that should auto add them to your ignore list (which I have done at least one so far)
