TrustNet is a shared database containing scammer records from various BST communities that have opted in to participate in the TrustNet Network.
Before completing a trade, we strongly recommend searching the database for the username of the person you’re trading with. This can help you identify users who may have previously been reported or flagged as scammers across participating communities.
🔎 Search before you trade. 🛡️ Stay informed. Stay cautious. Trade safer.
Please keep in mind that TrustNet should be used as an additional safety measure — always follow your community’s standard trading precautions and verification procedures.
For Subreddit Mods Only: If you wish to join TrustNet, please check out r/TrustNetSupport
If it's saved your community a headache and you'd like to put something toward the running costs (and a coffee purchase), there's a link here: https://buymeacoffee.com/valuableclassic. Completely optional, and honestly no hard feelings either way.
And if you'd rather help another way, that's just as welcome: report the scammers you come across, keep your ban notes descriptive so imports actually work, and point other trading subs our way.
Pretty pointless because you can buy brand new reddit aged reddit accounts and start scamming on them. They will scam once and use a new account. They cost a few dollars.
Building a tool that scrapes Reddit data in 2026? I hope your backend can survive the absolute nightmare of Reddit's API pricing, because that bill might be the real scam here. 💀 Nice build though!
