The way i see it is this :

Scammers can freely go around this board and get away with it.
If we complain or god forbid ask them for our money back we risk a ban or get accused of trolling threads (esp since the scammers simply ignore pm`s)

There is no recourse for them but plenty for us.VB.org does not have a system in place to protect either party - and if we use the tools `as provided` it simply means nothing - its just text,words which mean nothing as many people do not use search to check up on members.
What action is taken when something goes wrong - how come the scammers who have been reported are freely browsing the board and taking new jobs.
The answer is simple :

They done nothing to the board - so they allowed and because we ourselfs have a problem then its up to us to take it elsewhere and sort it out and not post anything about it on here.
Ive had numerous posts edited by MODS because its not in the boards interest.

Im close to a Ban as well but when i get a ban - remember this - The scammers who ripped me off will proberly be taking your job from paid request section and theres nothing u can do if they rip u off.
