TC, what do you think of developing a simple browser plug in that would alert users if the site they are visiting could be a scam?  We could allow legendary members to contribute to the database.

Of course this would only work if we could promote it in the B&H section...

I wouldn't even know where to begin Cry
Reading this thread, I actually quite like this idea. I'm not 100% sure on how it would work completely, but a GreaseMonkey extension could probably be made with this idea and could add a header to the top of the page for example. Just throwing ideas around.

You can probably add the scam site www.val1d.ru to the list. Someone created a thread advertising the site here, and upon visiting it via tor, it appears there are very few members/topics/posts, most likely well under 50 total posts. However there are a number of users whose statistics show they have several hundred posts, while their post history only show ~8 posts.

A number of illegal things are being sold (this doesn't necessarily make it a scam, but still a good idea to avoid). There are threads advertising things like western union payments at ridiculous discounts under the amount claiming to be sent, which should obviously mean all will not end will with the buyer in one way or another (BTW, "verified" members are selling this).

This has many of the same red flags that the scam site bitcoin-power.com has, although I am not sure if they are run by the same person.

Luckily I got return for my "investments", 2 times. Smiley But greed can make people blind, so I lost more than I "won".

I can certainly tell you that my bitcoinminerz.com site is no scam and I am no scammer. I owe 2 users a total of 5450 and it will be paid back when I have the funds available. Making that kind of money however is not an easy task when your name is being stepped on this much.
