About my comment? They'd say:
"Normally, you would be right. But in my special case, where my non-existent awareness almost let me walk into this scammers trap, I am happy to have had Clarkey to help me deal with my ignorance by providing essential information to me in my condition."
I think that your patients and I agree.
You're doing a great job, for the lower percentage of - how to put this politely - half-wits. I thank you on their behalf, and am happy to see your logic and decorum-defying approach to the matter.A true and virtuous zealousness only surpassed by that supporting the Western hunt for terrorists.

Humans shouldn't trust any other human. Why? Because humans lie. Even if they do not intend to lie, they will always lie.
Keep that in mind, and you NEED no Anti-Scamming-Authority.
That said, I guess if you want to continue 'making the public aware', you could ask for a special Mod and a special Thread in the General Section.. if that would be an agreeable alternative to spamming the entire forums with "Oh my Goodness, this one is a scammer!".. "Oh my, this one too!".. "And this one!!".. "Great Scott! They're all the same!".. "What if we hunt them all down?!" to which the Vox Rationis can only counter: "Do you think you'll EVER prevent scammers on a large scale?"
Go forth, my brethren, and continue thou great work of salvation. I'm sure there will be some people happy with what you're doing so far.
