Gmail: Put a checkmark next to the email you would like to report, then click on the "report spam" button.

Hotmail: Put a checkmark on the email you would like to report, click on the drop-down menu that says "Mark As", then in the drop-down menu select "Phishing Scam".

Yahoo Mail: Put a checkmark on the email you would like to report, click up at top where it says "Spam".

Note: These are all using the web-clients, other web clients and offline clients might have similar features that allow you to put a checkmark and report as spam or phishing scam.
