I've found tons of users begging in every post, this should be considered spam as it's the same post. "vouch copy"
Are we allowed to report if they consistently ask for vouch copies? Here's 2 examples.

This is not a scam accusation. It should be better to move in reputation section.

Btw there is no such rule in this forum about begging.
I think the seller will most probably ignore them since they are newbies.

A vouch is always given to a trusted member from senior to legendary members.
And the sellers already knows about it.

Did they literally receive any vouches? No. So probably they are ignored everytime. Wink
You can report those spam posts though.

As it is a discussion about a forum function/rule, it should be moved to Meta(either OP can do it, or I can report the thread and it will be moved just the same).
Coming to the question, no vouch beggars aren't breaking any forum rule to deserve moderation. Although the first one you have listed do seem to be a bit on the spammy side. Either report them directly to hilariousandco(Yobit campaign manager)  or here to get hilarious' attention

Nope, this topic is not related to forum discussion so meta is not a good place to move.

Don't wanna make this another discussion about moderation(as meta is the only place for it), so please edit this post of yours for any answers that you are going to add.

It is a forum related discussion
1) Its about reporting spammers
2) Its questioning forum rules
3) It is not targeting specific individuals rather a group of people who may be/are doing the same.

Edit: As to my previous statement that it is not spam, it does seem he(first one) copies the same phrase over in his posts. That might be debatable as to if it is spam(copied content) or not

I would agree normally I would not consider it spam.  But for the first one to have so many 5-6 word post's all asking for vouch... it's pretty close to spam.  Add to that with signature you are held to higher standard, and it does not look great.

I don't think it is a big section of spammers in this category, but that first account is very close.  Guess will be up to a mod on it.
