Thanks guys. Even if the site ends up helping one person not get scammed, it would be worth it.
I can remember when we hardly saw threads about scammers but it seems they are more frequent lately and honestly it sickens me to see these scammers lurking and preying on us. I don't want Gfy to turn into some other forums where scammers are running rampart. So hopefully this site will help so we can see who they are and it's a centralize place where we can check and see if the person we are about to deal with is trustworthy or not.
I swear there have been more than one instance when I read threads where a person got scammed, and then someone will post that "I warned you about xxxx in another thread months ago". This site may not stop the first person from being scammed but it may save the 2nd 3rd etc person from being scammed as well.
As for who to believe if someone reports that person scammed them, the other party will be given the link and they can respond to the complaint or accusation if they feel they have been unjustifiably accused. It's not going to be a lynch mob mentality. If you accuse or blast someone, you will have to list correspondence/proof and the person accused can tell their side.
That's why I thought of going more forum style so we can see the progress and if it was resolved.
