I've seen plenty of scam accusations opened by brand new members who obviously did not see any warning signs originating from bitcointalk before they got scammed
Most of them probably haven't done any/enough research
[bitcointalk isn't the only forum/platform that warns users about such scams].
I even checked what the search results pulled up for "1xbit" and IIRC all of the top results were links to the site itself or positive reviews and so forth. There weren't any red flags that showed up in at least the first two pages of search results.
Depending on "
a few things", results may vary from person to person...

If any of those threads save a single person from getting scammed, they've served their purpose!
