There are other services that allow this but I didn&#8217;t find on that I liked. These were the criteria I felt were important:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Completely Anonymous (if desired) logging in several different categories.\n<\/li>\n<li>No username\/signup process keeps it simple and quick.\n<\/li>\n<li>Few mandatory fields. If you dont know the fax number, I won&#8217;t bust your balls!\n<\/li>\n<li>High Search Engine visibility. Scamdex has always relied on Search Engines, especially Google, for indexing of it&#8217;s information. 85% our visitors come to Scamdex through a search engine query.\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>You can see what has already been logged <a href='\/ScamTipReports'>Here<\/a> and Add information <a href='\/ScamTipOff.php'>Here<\/a>. The app is under continuous development and I am working on tools to aggregate similar and identical reports. Any feedback is gratefully received (just make a comment here)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Back in 2008, Scamdex found a blog devoted to outing the huge population of scammers to whom Craigslist is a God-given opportunity to rip off people the world over.
