Not Just Another BST Scammer Thread

Today and back 5 years. I feel the stickies offer at least some warning going forward and they are there now.

I appreciate the kind words. I never thought this was necessarily my fault, but it's my forum , so everything is my fault lol. It's something I want to do. I hope to receive some PMs soon.

Gi'day, mate, I would trade with people I know from here. No way I would trade with someone I didn't know.

Leon:

I would assume most if not all of scammers are newbies?

Is there some way to add to everyone's ID when they post, something like " A Net 54 member since 2017" for example? That would alert guys to new sellers on BST to either avoid or check with you first before sending any $$?

Or someway you could add a red star or something to everyone's ID that you would "pre-certify" as trustworthy"? Or some similar idea that would work?

Click on their ID and you can see their info page. It shows when they've joined and how many posts they've had.

And more importantly, if you are buying something from somebody you don't know, send them a private message and ask them for references. And then send a PM to those references and ask if the seller is legit.

Every post shows when the person posting joined and how many posts they've made. It's right in the header of the post.
