lol new user, IPO. I'm tired of this, really. I don't post in Securities a lot but I am seeing this daily.

We need more proof to validate why and how we can trust you with our money without you delivering anything.

This is why the WoT is such a powerful tool, and why you really can't trust any of these
'offerings'

Even with 'proof' of validation, you still don't know the OP from Adam. We've seen this so many times in this forum; the OP may look credible, but it is still an 'Over-the-counter' interaction, with no regulation. The counter-party risk is huge here and, as history tells us, rarely works out for the best.

At least if you could look in the WoT, and see that, "Hey, Jimbo has dealt with this guy, and I trust Jimbo's opinion," then you would have a fighting chance.

The plain fact is, you won't know if any of these offerings are a scam until it is too late. If you're newbie that is reading this, and don't believe me, just hang around for a few months and watch. You'll see that you are swimming in a sea of scams.

What is "WoT?"
