Yeah the Reddit in-group signaling and other barriers to entry are too high, but that’s not to say the same thing doesn’t happen on saidit and/or here.

By the way, I was scammed out of half a million dollars by a formerly prominent Reddit user - u/go1dfish - not a year and a half ago. They’ve virtually disappeared off the face of the internet so I haven’t been able to resolve the issue and am living in squalor as a result. If you ever hear anything, or know of anyone who might be able to help, please do contact me further: e@tesos.net

You're right it can eventually happen to any forum or community, that's kind of the catch I suppose.

I will definitely look into your scammer and let you know ;)
