    Ofcourse. I think there is no one has been ripped off here for business. ;)
    If you are in the business, be ready to get ripped.

    Sure, you need to scope out everything you are going to order to avoid getting ripped off.

    Getting ripped off at some point of time, is a part and parcel of doing any business and I did get to experience my share of it too.
    There is nothing unusual about it. It surely becomes unusual if you keep repeating the same mistakes again and again and you keep getting scammed in the same manner! :(
