2. referral from another provider or hobbyist
such as a provider/hobbyist who has been arrested and is working on a "deal"?
3. links to reviews from recognized members (any site)
Same as above. What is a hobbyist with a lot to lose (security clearance, marriage, kids, business) willing to do to make it "go away".
PoPo has an extensive and professional IT department . . . ANY of the above conditions are easy to achieve unfortunately and I'm betting the Mods probably don't/can't investigate to sufficient depth to make it impossible to stop it from happening. Not a Mod slam, just an unfortunate fact of life.
Y'all be careful out there!
