Thank you, I tried following the 6 steps in there but to be honest most of them are not applicable, mainly because I didn't actual purchase a counterfeit product.
this act of them is more like distributing keygens, cracks etc. goes against Microsoft's terms of service. (they do also distribute those tools)

  Hi HotCakeX
  
  I guess, there could be a few ways to possible escalate this.
  
  1.) Open a support ticket requesting where to send the information too (I.e. legal)
  2.) There is a site here which points to the email address piracy@microsoft.com however I don't know whether this address is still in use
  
  https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/msrc/faqs-report-an-issue
  
  3.) You could look to report it here as part of a technical support scam

  Best, Chris

    "I would like to report pirated Microsoft software" section sounds like the right place, it also
    points to https://www.microsoft.com/piracy/
    which says:
    "We are sorry, the page you requested cannot be found."
    (someone needs to get that fixed)
    
    and as you said about piracy@microsoft.com, I'm not 100% sure if it's the right Email address or if it's still being monitored.
    
    BTW, the post in the forum that is about these, are restricted, users who are not logged in cannot view it, even if you create an account you can't view it, you will need to have a certain rank to be able to view it. so whoever from Microsoft wants to go after this can use my account, np.
    
    also, on another Chinese related Office 365 account that I managed to get from there I could access its AAD users list, with read permissions only, there were tons of accounts.
    
    I don't wanna put lots of stuff publicly here so I'll understand if someone decides to hide this post.
