    Wouldn't that come under the "Warnings & Rip Offs" board? That already seems an adequate place to post scams whether websites or not.

    I like the idea of it, but I think most people would be daft enough to actually click the links just to see. ;)

    I used to do that a few years ago to the bank fishing sites just to see how good they were and they were not very good. But recently looked at another I had and that was really good, I can see how people get caught.

    I used to report them to my bank back then but don't bother any more as they are normally on top of it quite quickly now.
