I can see that more and more posts promote scam projects and unfortunately this affects every day the reputation of this forum. I think people should be somehow motivated to act as a BitcoinTalk ambassadors.

These are my ideas on how we can lower this phenomenon to near zero:
- one of the Administrators could create, moderate and promote a new topic with the "Scam Hunters" contest
- prices could be: "ambassadors badges" , merit points etc. (at a certain number of validated/confirmed scams by admins you can receive different badges: bronze, silver, gold ...)
- of the other side, people promoting scams will be discouraged to insist into these operations knowing that the ambassadors are motivated to find them fast
- I know that this can be done today, also, via "Report to moderator" link, but I feel like something is missing as people do not use this option as it should.
What do you think, guys, about this?
