1) ask ISP to take down offending website
2) ISP tells site owners to remove inappropriate contents, and in the meantime takes it down
3) Site goes back up when it's ready
The quicker they get rid of the MS stuff, the quicker it'll be available for whatever other stuff it's used for.
Oh, and considering Nexon sells mesos it's extremely easy to point to how meso selling websites hurt their business. Plus when people get scammed they can only blame Nexon, and it just causes more trouble... The best way to deal with it would be to figure out what characters the sellers are using and ban them (maybe look at characters who commit high-volume meso trades or sending Duey packages, and never train)
Most of the Chinese Farm sites are in .... China. Even their ISP's. Nexon cant shut them down. Blizzard has been trying for years to get them to go away, it just drove the large sites like IGE to china for protection.
Even botting is hard to stop. Blizzard finally got the one american World of Warcraft Bot shut down. But the other non american bots are still running strong.

That would ban THOUSANDS of merchants in the fm. Most good mesos selling sites dont send via duey anymore.
