you can add everyone but only people who wil be have proff ( print screen of chat, trade history etc.) will be added to database. It's not that you add someone and he go to database. Person must be verified.. them if we see that he/she/it try scam - we added to database

ok, how this differs from steamrep? who will verify 9000 entries a hour?

steamrep shows you only scammers if you go on page. This page/program block person and he dont even added you. Verify is easy. If someone have proof we added if not we leave for later to think. there is not a lot of scammers then propably they will be 3-6 in day i think. rest is only same link.

Why dont just parse their database and just make a tool that uses it?

Also, a good way to destroy this system is by clogging it up with false reports.

Just ignore random people and don´t click everything you see. Thats how i explained internet to my mum. No need for a "program".

Bad idea.
After someone hijacks your account, they send phising links to everyone on that victims friendlist and after the victim gets back his account they can start the damage control but now relieved.
And steamrep doesn't mark them as scammer. Why would you?

like i say to SHIV
1 blocked victim = 500 saves account
of course i dont wanna block this person but if this saves more people then why not ? Scammer can have victim account for even 48 h then steam support do something. Just think how many people can be scam via scam bot in 48 h ?
Info that scam bot dont works only with friends list also working with groups then if you plug in on steam group where is 1 mln users then i think he can do more damage then you think.
Like i say: I know that there is a lot of victims but if we even block him on 48 h we save A LOT of accounts.

Well steamrep conveniently ignores the most common type of scam - key scams (which includes gift link scams), so it makes sense to have a list of people who are known for that.

Aloha
I would like to create a site to block scammers and need opinion if this is a good idea.
I think that almost everyone add a person, who threw text, Hi add my friend .. "and if you know what this mean you delete them from your friends list - if not your lost steam account and even all items.
This is annoying and I thought to do page that use one button locks all the scammers are stored on the database, supplemented by the moderators on my page. If the idea will prove to be an interesting i make program, which will be adding all users as soon as we add new database without clicking another option and re-update.
How this will be works:
If you agree with me that this is a nice idea please leave vote here: http://www.ipetitions.com/petition/steam-against-scammers
steam must unclock 1 option and if he do this and open page in couple days.
what you think about program like that ?
