These posts show up on every thread like this and it always strikes me as off. It's not that I think the scammer here deserves protection, but the impulse to "name and shame" makes me very uncomfortable.

I worry that supporting that impulse, even in cases like this, normalizes the use of internet lynch mobs to exact "justice" (for any subjective value of "justice" that can get enough steam).

Also, remember the reddit and Boston bomber situation? publicly doxxing someone is almost NEVER a good idea.

Also it would be soo easy to frame someone. That is why we have the legal system we have in most countries. We want to be REALLY sure we get the right person before we do something about it.
