    I believe that all the badges in store should be removed from store and from all the members who paid for them ( or change bought badges to a different name)

    As these are a scammers paradise they can buy a badge here for cheap and when a new user sees "trusted" "Leader" " Secure" they will more than likely trust them and fall for their scam

    These badges should only and I mean ONLY
    Only be given out to members of this site/community that deserve them or have earned them at the discretion of the admin or if a staff member brings this up with the rest of the staff for example

    Mod 1thinks xxx deserves the "Trusted badge" because he has xxxx feedback at 100% and has had no warnings, so he goes to the staff lounge and creates a poll, where the rest of the staff will then vote and majority will decide if xxxx gets the badge

    This way the badges actually mean something and can't be used to lure and scam members

    These people who buy badges we remove them if they're not actually trusted. We don't just hand them out to random people who register. Ironically as well most scammers rarely buy these. True scammers will simply try to scam the user by baiting them offsite. We have never had a case where an user buys multiple badges and then attempts to scam people as to date.
