Just a suggestion, why not make it so people without x amount of posts, can't put their goods up for sale? Or maybe.. can't put stuff up for sale over x amount of dollars, or can't put anything up for sale if they havn't been a members for x amount of days (or weeks?)
Just a suggestion, seems that fraudsters have it easy.. Just signup again, with a different email address and different name. It happens all the time

Because then maybe people would spam to reach x amount of posts.
No matter what we do - fraudsters/scammers will still find someway to scam.

Just noticed this thread. If you run a search you will find this was discussed in detail a few weeks/days ago. It basically says in more detail what Akash has already said above...

It seems to be a regular discussion. And the outcome is always the same. Scammers will find a way to scam. We just need to make informed decisions.
There is no best host. There is only the host that's best for you.

Or force sellers who sell here to register with WHT.
Force a voice confirmation that the hosting company exists, possibly ask volunteers to run BBB checks, etc.Website, Artwork, Me ~ [ http://cerebrolabs.deviantart.com ]
