Currently there are over 60 separate threads in the general feedback forum alone about reporting players or cheaters so I thought i'd put together solutions i've found on the web and in these threads in a central place so hopefully people can send their reports to the right places. I'll add to this if anyone else has any links/tips on how to report cheaters/players.
I'd also like to echo people's comments from lots of these threads - it would be a huge help to report people if we had an in-game report option.
Please do not post below your 'examples' of cheats or post names/user ID's or people you feel are bad players/cheats, use the tools described below. The more we use these tools to report genuine cheaters the more likely we are to have an impact.
Thank you.
Mod/CM - Please can you sticky this thread.
Cheaters
Report through the Easy Anti-Cheat form here

Sadly, as of right now, you cannot report in-game behaviours on PS4, using the aforementioned solution. PS4 system software only allow you to report inappropriate User IDs or inappropriate messages sent with PSN messaging system.
Personally, I use support.ea.com contact forms and send a copy to abuse at respawn dot com.
I think that would be a great idea to stick this thread.

@theWonderChris , you should add the following link:
https://help.ea.com/ca/contact-us/?product=apex-legends
That is how you report cheat and harassment on PS4.
Also, I think that is the only way to report harassment and abusive language.
I also use abuse at respawn dot com to send a copy of my report.
