    I have finally decided to start this service, where you can report all the scammers.
    This is an initiative taken by me an some of my friends who got scammed:( . We want to the internet and the world to have a better and a more secure environment, by exposing all the malicious elements.

    If you have ever been scammed, cheated or defrauded in anyway by anyone, please post it on this site- for the whole world to see! Maybe, it won’t help you, but by exposing the fraud, you are helping others. The scammer won’t be able to scam anyone anymore.

    Please Help us achieve this goal.
    The details can be found out by visiting the site(my username)
    Thanks.

    Mods: Please do not close this thread, as I am not trying to advertise or anything. This is just to help other members who have been Scammed and cheated like me. Thanks.
    One request, since I cannot post live links, please make the link live- http://www.scamsky.com/report-a-scam/

    Sounds like an interesting idea. You may want to look into the legal side of things, as far as allowing users to post negative things about other people and companies, especially if they aren't true.

    Just from curiosity, why can't you post live links? Is your signature off limits too?

    I've seen a couple of sites like this before.

    Take my advice and makesure everything is backed up, as I've seen cases where people have been charged for slander.

    Your motives would have been more believeable had your site been more visible behind the Adsense ads it carries.

    Oh, c'mon, I wanted to help you guys, and moreover, is it wrong, if I can get some help, by monetizing it? I have been scammed before:( and I don't want it to happen to anyone. I know, the feeling is terrible.
