Dear CRT

I agree with you, scam adverts should be banned but even if they were newbies would still find their way to the scam sites.

From reading through various threads, most newbies (if not all of them) find their way to scam sites by googling, not by the adverts seen at the top of this forum. They only find this forum after they have a problem, which is usually after they have paid their money to a scammer, and get no response from their 24/7 nonexistent help line.

Unfortunately CRT, newbies get scammed because they are over eager, do no research and, above all, seem not to use their common sense before parting with their money.

The internet is a perpetual gold mine of commerce, information and communication. No wonder there are so many scammers on the internet because, as said before (well over a hundred years ago), "There's gold in a fools pocket, there's lots of it and its easier to get".

Sorry CRT, you can't protect people who will jump first and look later.
