However if someone doing the hiring did thorough enough research they would see more than 1 negative feedback in the paid request area regarding the coder in question.

I just don't see how some people will not go through the "trouble" of researching someone who will have full access to their site before hiring them yet when they are scammed they have more than enough time to take action - If they put that amount of effort and sheer tenacity into it beforehand then there would be far less threads of this nature. If you're simply visiting their profile, seeing a list of modifications they released and assuming that equals the type of person you're looking for to do work for you then you're not doing your job to protect your site and your hard earned money.

Don't let people cheat you. If you've been cheated then take action and if need be sue, trying to place the blame on others or an entire system that's been in place for more than eight years when hiring someone without doing a in-depth amount of research just does not cut it. Trust me I see where you're coming from, I agree with you to a degree but at the same time I as a devloper offering services has been cheated in the past too, what say you to that? Want to know what I say? Live and let live, Karma is a (insert cuss word here) and I'm onto bigger and better things .

Just another 2 cents, to date you now have .04 cents in your account .
^ Laugh AT ME not with me on that one, I'm silly and I blame it on my three kids!
