Most of us know that Blizzard's stance against botting partially depends on the the community reporting these bots. You know who they are, the /followers in BGs that get stuck on cliffs and trees, the miners in Uldum. This post addresses the latter: Hacked players in Uldum.
You're out farming, and you see that one person doing that kinda automated flying pattern, always flies straight up after mining? It's probably a bot, or a hacked player (both.), and you should go ahead and report them by creating a ticket ingame.
That is if you see them physically ingame. However, there are ways how you can tell a player is botting without even going into Uldum! This is you are bored, or feeling awfully passionate about stopping those botters on your server who ruin your economy.
1) /who Uldum
2) Look at their Armory history for suspicious activity + 525 mining
3) ?????
4) Profit!

With this, I am trying to encourage players to be more proactive a little bit with reporting bots, as they don't make this game fun for anybody. don't try to become obsessed with finding bots with this method either. I do my rounds once in a while, and have seen plenty of players *poof* from the game as a result.
Report them, but report wisely.
