Seriously. I got shot down on the last Google related thread about this issue because "what about the scammers". I get it, you need a process for stopping the scammers/psammers, but any system you create will make mistakes and so it must have a genuine system of appeal and recourse.

At some point on of these companies is going to hit someone with enough power to force them to do a better job.

And then they fix that one situation and go on about their normal business. At least that is what it seems to me. I would wish for something more long term to happen but I am becoming less hopeful.


The scammers seem to do just fine despite all these systems, yet legitimate sellers can get completely hosed by them. Hm.
