How does flagging a scam email to Google and marking it as spam/phishing help the recipient?

I'm interested in understanding how this action helps protect users from potential cyber threats and what measures Google takes to prevent similar emails from reaching other users. Additionally, does marking emails as spam contribute to improving email security overall? Any insights or resources on this topic would be helpful!

I think that creates more awareness for other people to avoid being scammed on the same way too.
