It starts by not advertising a service you don't trust. And if you do trust it, you can just use it. Why would you recommend others to use something you wouldn't trust with your own money?

LoyceV, are you using Agora Desk exchange?

I don't have a need to exchange funds, so that wouldn't make sense. But I haven't seen a reason not to trust them.
I know this isn't perfect, and the signs weren't that obvious in WWM's case either. But there are many more obvious cases that are still being advertised in signature campaigns, which is the reason I wrote that.

I dont think this is happening in real world outside bitcointalk, people advertise lot of junk all the time because someone pays them to make youtube video for that product ot service.

Not only on Youtube, it's totally normal on TV, Adwords and in newspapers too. Only when some scandal hits the media, they suddenly start a boycot to rescue their image. Other than that, it's all about the money.
But newspapers don't need to keep much of an image. I like to think we could be different.
