Ripple is a scam?
Ripple Labs have been very active for many months now and have written millions of lines of high quality code (
https://github.com/ripple). They also have quite a few high profile investors (e.g. Google Ventures) on board (see:
https://www.ripplelabs.com/investors/)
Whatever about taking on Bitcoin; creating
the lingua Franca for currency is a huge undertaking.
Calling this demonstrable effort a "scam" just shows how little you know. For people like you, Bitcoin is a religion.
