I disagree with a few of the points.
0. Newbies, NEVER DO BUSINESS WITH OTHER NEWBIES, EVER. There are plenty of veteran members to do business with and ALWAYS use escrow. If you're a newbie and you're doing business with another newbie, there's a 100% chance that you will get scammed (or you're a scammer yourself). I can not stress this enough.. just work with people who have been here at least a year.
100%? NEVER? I trade with newbies all the time. This is a ridiculous stereotype of members here. This is just retarded.
1. New account (usually created within the last 3 months, plus or minus)
No, this correlated with my response to 0.
3. Use of a seemingly realistic first/last name as their forum account name
Look at my name. My username is my First name. Have I ever scammed anyone? No. I use a combination of my First and Last name on some forums. Ridiculous.
4. Signs posts with full name
--Simran Singh
8. Any user blatantly claiming to be female
Oh, yeah, cause females don't exist on the internet. Sexist? Probably not, but this is not true.
^^ Listen to this guy. He got 1000 LTC stolen right from his own BTC-E account, so he's definitely the picture of perception and awareness.
