[Help/Team needed] Project S&C Facility.

Dear SL resident, forum goeroe's and Lindens.

I have a project (volunteer) in mind, and any help with that could be appreciated. S&C (Scams and cons) facility, a soon to be born organisation and hopefully to become LL-recognised. S&C is a volunteer organisation that is like a customer-consult as we know from real-life, but not only do we inform, aid and support a customer that feels like he was 'ripped off', 'scammed', we also support the daily salesman/womans that honestly run there business but get messages by people they do not know claiming they own one of there products. If there may be a conflict by either purchaser or seller of a product, we may negotiate for them, solve conflicts or blacklist the purchaser/seller.

Running this is me, Finrod Ghennyn. SL Veteran (Born dates are not everything you know.). I'm very much experienced in the business and going on SL, aswell as the social parts. I know most methods of scamming in-progress and smell a con-artist from 1000 SL meters away. By doing this job, i hope to contribute something to the community knowing i will not ask, require or want to earn a single dime out of it.

Some known methods of a scam that might hit your store:
'Rollback/data-server scam' - Customer claims to have 'never' received a product even though you have never seen ANY payment from that avatar. Oftenly making the salesman/woman afraid to get in trouble achieving to receive a product of his claim.
'Perfect store-manager' - Social scam, the offender will act like a store owner in an (oftenly expencive) store and sell you items cheaper then the store prices .. He dissapears and you have payed quite some money for homemade oftenly low-quality items.

Allot of these scam's happen, and they can be fought aslong as you are informed early enough. If you smell doubt you may ask us and we can help you find out.

What we are in need and request of:

-Volunteers (helpdesk/chat help)
-Commercial agents (people to inform SL about our free service)
-Land, not much but enough to inform people about us. (Not directly necesarry and the last number on my list.)
-A right hand (A second hand thatll keep track of the group, keep close eyes on recent developments such as thief-scripts e.d, remember its allot of work like a manager.)
-Linden Labs blessing

In case your heart is good, and you do feel like sparing your fellow-residents maybe 10 minutes a day protecting their virtual freedom, in ways of protecting them from any low-civilised scammers, cons and dis-payers .. please feel so free to contact me for more information or to write down something about yourself and a role you apply to.

Remember, if you sign up, this is charity to the residents all over the grid. You will earn nothing out of it through us.

I would love to promote u guys. This is a real nice move!!! If u have a note card or something, i will pass them over to everyone.

Mikefinn, thank you for your enthousiasme and support.

I will contact you as soon as we've established a team that is able to support the people in need.

Current amount of cases:
1 - Was scammed, saying Linden Lab's wont react cause if invalid proof. We are there to sort out the mess, and provide any proof that we can discover.

I've just finished the core of the S&C Report-point.

We are in desperate need of a machine/mailbox build that is very clearly a report point for scams.

I was thinking about something like this:
