Den why do they put up the trading forum?
its going to mislead the public... how abt those who have genuine intention to trade.. u say its not their responsibility? make it a fertile ground for fraud cases now?its so easy to discharge their accountability heh? nice talks.. dont have the intention might as well REMOVE it 100% trade forum!
Need to be responsible on whatever we do.. consumers can only be on guard to the extent they can manage, different consumers will have their own level of comfort level new buyers wont be as experienced as a 2 years trade forum posting adult.. the moderators need to make their complimentary part as wel.. otherwise this will be a fertile breeding ground for all malaysian cyberscammers.
I hope your NOT another person that talks big but zero when it comes to doing it. I bet the mods are willing to give you the chance to implement this YOURSELF. Which part of the forum isnt mods trying to improve? If they didnt not want to help to cut down the number of con cases, there wont be the safe trader tag, there wont be this sub forum, there wont be all these precautions.
I ask all of you, how many of you actually READ all the details available before doing you trading? They will not close the forum just because of some low-minded/lazy traders. If their smart they wont get con, if they do their research they won't get conned.
IF you say its not their fault then may I ask you why all those that have trading experience won't get con? its because their not lazy to go read up the details and do some research. Everyone kept repeating DO NOT trade with newbies but their still people doing that. If you want to trade with newbies you can always do a cod with them. I am not saying all newbies are conman but I am say MOST of the newbies are conman.
Come on, be logical, WHY IN THE WORLD would someone sell something super cheap? and its not only 1 item, its a FEW items superbly cheap until its IMPOSSIBLE. Would you buy a Mercedes S class without seeing it with you own eyes even if it was 10k? Would you buy a banglo thats Rm1000 but you never saw it before? No right? Then why are you buying these stuff that you never seen before and you cant confirm its real?
Edit : Reply to the post above.
I ask you, would you take up the chance if you could? I mean implement all your ideas if you were given a chance? WOULD YOU do it for FREE? You can avoid getting conned by newbies if you follow the procedures provided by so many of the senior traders. IF your willing to put up effort into searching details about your trade I'm sure the number of con cases will greatly decrease. If the buyers of this thread could have just done a search about the bank account owner with the LYN search function all this could have been avoided.
