That's complete bullshit

DT might in fact have been created to warn people of fishy behavior but did it actually prevent anyone from scamming? Quite the contrary, it was specifically used a few times in the past to gain more trust and then pull off a scam attempt on even more people who took this system seriously and believed the trust of the scammer. This is the issue which many forget to mention or just to consider. So much for scam prevention

Hit in DT1 or DT2 list ≠ Reputation or Personal Trust

I'm not sure what you mean by that

You can have hundreds of feedbacks sent to fraudulent users, but this does not mean that your personal trust will be high.

It is not about hundreds of feedbacks sent to fraudulent users

As it is specifically about scammers exploiting the Trust system to their advantage by boosting their trust level over time and thus attracting more guileless forum members before the exit. Whether they were in DT or not is not very important here (even though some of them likely were). All in all, it pretty much means that the Trust system, instead of preventing scams and frauds, actually promoted them. I remember someone listing these former high-trusted forum members that had scammed in the end
