    What on earth is happening to digitalpoint forums lately?

    I have been scammed on my last 3 transactions on this forum.
    Its getting to the stage where I dont trust this place anymore.

    Is it just me or others finding the same?

    Did you check their itraders before hand?

    I haven't been scammed too much and I've been here for a year..

    Three times in a row....are you that gullible?

    Maybe you need to rethink your business strategies...

    I have been a member here for nearly two years now...I have never really had a bad experience, doing business with any member here.

    Yes there are lot of scammers around...but I always prefer to do business with established players. Even when I am dealing with new guys, I keep the deal small.

    Also please use the iTrader feedback system wherever it is possible.

    I have never ever had a bad experience here in DP. You are a little bit unlucky. ;)

    I have plenty of experience dealing with members here.

    too much, i have not been scammed even once! remember, only trade with reputed members who have post counts and itraders, that's the only way to know about who is genuine or not!

    if you are scammed, always leave a negative itrader, atleast that will help others to judge, who is correct and who is not!:)

    You have 26 posts. That seems to suggest you are only here to trade.

    This is a discussion forum with the added bonus of a marketplace. Not the other way around. Seems like your expectations aren't in line with what this place actually is.

    And not trusting DP in its entirety because of 3 bad transactions is very shortsighted.

    Maybe consider doing something about your image. No sig, no profile, no avatar, no decent post history. All adds of to an easy target.

    perhaps DP just isn't for you.

    I have found that the biggest scam with scammers is complaining about scams when they are scammers themselves

    I have to agree that the scamming is increasing. I now make more of an effort to check the sellers background including paypal verified transactions made and iTrader.
