Dear Newbies

Apart from ZebraSE, how many of you guys and girls did any research into what you were getting into before you gave your money away to the scammers?

Did anyone stop to think that what was on offer seemed too good to be true?

Did anyone check that the (scam) site had a phone number, an address and could be contacted.

Did you try to gather any information about the site, e.g. reviews, word of mouth, other recommendations, before parting with your money?

Or were you mesmerised by the scammer’s advert, i.e. smiling models, slick presentation, lots of “wordage”, etc?

If the answer to the above questions, except the last one, was "NO" then you newbies have no one to blame but yourselves for being taken.
