Scams & Fraud

Nearly fell for it this week in my search for online business. This time I have learned a few new things about how to spot and identify online scam artists. Check out the url of any suspect site with whois.net There you will find when the site was registered, location of owner etc. In my case above I discovered the site was only just registered (March 2006) but it claimed to have been around pre-2004! In fact when I looked more closely, most of the material was 2004 or before - an old site used to suggest credibility.
Another list of guidelines (no need to re-invent the wheel) is escrow.com. Note their mention of Western Union - this is often a give-away.
Perhaps you might like to post here any recent experiences of (near) scamming to alert others, including me!
