And you are correct, usually the three ways you mentioned, are "red flags" for swindlers to take advantage of someone in need...
However, those either:::
1) Don't get to stay long and get blacklisted for all to see (That is if even allowed to register)
The vendors we've associated ourselves with are and have been trustworthy and honest... Just like our membership... We stress this...
As it were.... Online... The only thing you really have that could be considered "tangible" is your word... Without your good word and reputation of not shilling (lieing for a vendor) or misrepresenting them, you have nothing...
Maybe I haven't confused everybody too much... It is early here....

Hi Ice, could you clear something up for me if you see this? I'm probably being thick but here goes.
What do you mean when you say
"never associate any form of payment with any particular vendor... Somehow after it spoken of a bit, that way gets "discontinued" for some unkn reason..."
Do you mean don't use the same payment method for a vendor for too long? There's a vendor that I think has very good reviews on the part of the site that I can't see who only takes WU. If it works out I'd like to keep him in the rotation...or do you mean don't mention payment type in general too much for any single vendor. I think the rules forbid any payment discussion at all....
Thanks for any help you can give to a confused newbie.
