Agent Insights Ep 09: Purpose of Agencies


Hello, Flint here, and today I’ll be talking about the purpose of scam catcher agencies.

Scam catcher agencies are groups like this one, whose purpose is to seek out scammers and post about them. Many also do things like list types of scams and promote community involvement.

Some of these sites may seem useless. We can’t possibly warn of every scammer out there, the ones we do post about probably won’t be banned, and much of the times these sites are inactive.

However, these sorts of things can help people recognize scams when they see them, and help them avoid getting scammed. Posting about the scams and scammers we see can enlighten people as to what they are doing, and any new or previously unknown methods they may not have seen.

Also, agencies often cover things like hacking. Reading the sites/watching the channels of agencies can help people discover how to avoid getting hacked, among other things.

Bye!

  1. i found that very true as well. you may not be able to catch every scammer, but you all are working on that. i also like seeing people doing this because your not fighting for just a game, your fighting for people's trust. while many people ( as you menchoned ) think this is useless, but they only see a broken cause, but i see something to really fight for. ( i know i sound preachy and corny, buts thats my oppinion i feel strongly for )

We will not entertain any comments that are posted with malicious intent. In that sense, we will not remove any post on a scammer until we have solid evidence showing that the scammer in question did not actually scam. If your comment is asking for a post to be taken down or implies that any posted scammer wasn't scamming, it likely won't be published.
