Known Scammers get banned, but this thread has the most comprehensive list on OSO.

FYI.....Our contact person with IB is checking with the tech support team to see if they can make the 10 post rule for sending PM's like it is for posting pics.

This is now in effect and only members with 10 posts can send or view PM's. Hopefully this will help reduce the problem some.

That rule would be easy to work around. I would be very sus of anyone replying to a wanted ad here who isn't an established member of this forum.

I agree that its not hard to get around the 10 post rule. It just creates another step for them to go through and worthless posts by scammers will get noticed and hopefully reported, while scammer PM's only get seen by the recipients.
