Minecraft Forums

I saw on my facebook page a ad that lead to minecraft.descargar.es, offering a free download of 1.6.1

I suspect it's a scam (I removed a few bits from the link, because, you know, internet folk will often click anything), but is their some method I should use to inform Mojang about this?

There are millions of Minecraft scams out there. Mojang hasn't done anything against any of them AFAIK.

The best thing you can do is to warn people you know about it.

Don't listen to him. There is something you can do about it.
You can usually report ads to Google or Facebook, so notify them about it.

Its best to at least warn people about it. I haven't come across anything on FB yet, but if I see something that says free download for MC, I will get the word out that its not something anyone should click on.

Report to the federal office thingy...

BTW, Marc_IRL said we can report it here: http://help.mojang.com/customer/portal/emails/new
