I don't know anything about Kickstarter. But:

has ks been around long enough to attract / surface fraud?

incentives for fraud go up at stakes of 1 - 2mm

public investment models anticipate social disconnection bw funder and funder -- if ks depends on verification through social network linkage, that's an element potentially missing from the proposal. again, not for _you_, for the sort of people targetted by predators
