Unfortunately GFY is where a lot of these scammers lurk.

Basic principles like knowing who you are trading with, and avoiding obvious pitfalls do come into play. Eg exchanging anything for paypal is very risky. Also don't trust people just because they did a couple of small transfers with you .. its a well known tactic and has a surprisingly good success rate as webmasters are lulled into a false sense of security.
