Because all options were related to SEO techniques (blackhat mainly). It made me think that the only way to get that site removed or penalized from the Google index was to report them as buying links (but heck, thats not the case for that website, but its more serious where people can get infected their machines).

It sounds as though Google don't care if we get ripped off, or get a virus then. Seriously - I wouldn't report a site again. I reported a competitor for repeating keywords. They weren't just repeating them in the body of their text - they had line and lines at the bottom or their page with the word plumber and plumber in. Well, guess what happened - I was dropped from the front page of Google for a few weeks for all my keyphrases. And they didn't lose their top place at all on that page! So, I wouldn't bother reporting anything to Google again. I don't know why they bother asking. That’s interesting Astrit.
