Being scammed in one way or another seems inevitable, what are the clear indicators that a legit-looking service is actually a big scam of some sorts? Is this forum a good place for info to detect a fraudulent scheme?
There is so-called an obvious scam and scam in the making. Obvious scam obviously has some service that is really out of the context and not realisitic meaning you will think of it as no way "they have something like that" etc.
On the other hand, scam in the making are great at first but eventually will turned to a shit one. No indicators or something that can tell a great site if those will be scam afterwards, just make a wild analyzation out of your factors and criteria as considering a certain site a scammed one.
