Before I ask my question, I just want to say that I am aware that dealing with any vendors on this site is our choice and it’s nearly impossible to insure we will never get scammed. Once reliable vendors surprise us and exit scam or similar, and people intent on scamming will find ways around the processes in place trying to prevent it. I’m also aware that for several reasons, the vetting process to become a vendor cannot be posted publicly.
I am curious though if anyone can tell me the basics of the process. How hard would it be for a blacklisted vendor to start a new account pretending to be someone else and start vending again? I saw a comment recently where someone questioned if a newer vendor could actually be a certain blacklisted vendor, so I was wondering how difficult this would be for someone to pull off.
I wasn’t sure which forum was best to post this in, so admins please let me know if I should repost elsewhere.
