    I know this thread is more about money transfer scams, and I know Pinside has done (some) measures to eliminate spam postings on here, but holy hell, how have we not made a minimum post # required before you can place a FS ad?

    Say 25 posts. Then when they go to post the ad, anyone can see what their 25 posts were and if they trying to circumvent the rules with junk posts or whatnot. Some spammers won’t even want to go through the effort. Two ways from one solution to weed these out.

    There are still FS ads from new members with 1-2 posts, quite a few seem too good to be true, and then they disappear. How we still allow that in 2018 makes exactly 0.0% sense to me.
