There is no list of scammers. Why do you want one? You can view people's feedback on their profiles or check the user OldScammerTag to see which people were previously marked as scammers by the Staff (though the system is no longer in place as we just go by community feedback now).

Here is one => https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=149147.0

But, if I can remember properly, 2/3 months back I found another more compact & consolidated link. Somehow I'm not getting it now !!! That list was consolidated like the list of scams (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=576337).

There is a scam accusations subforum, this is probably the closest thing you will get to a list of scammers.

The forum has a policy to not delete clear scams, but to rather tell users "buyer beware" and to due their due dilligance.

That list is more than a year old (last edited on Mar 8, 2013).

Also, it is very hard to make a huge list of scammers as we have new scammers popping up every day... :(

Here's OldScammerTag's trust feedback. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=trust;u=330472

Scroll to where the sent feedback is. Beside's that, there is no actively updated scammer list. The trust system is there to mark people as scammers or trusted.

This will be more up to date https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=83.0

however the list will not always be accurate like any list.
