From an experience I've just had, always be suspicious of people who have taken out several loans at once and they haven't taken steps to repay, chances are it's a grab and run strategy.
On this note, always ask if they can provide collateral.

Very useful info. I only joined the forum 3 days ago. Since then I have made about 22 successful transactions for currency exchange. Sadly, another 5 were scammers who stole my payment in various different ways. I will list them when I can discern the right place to do so...Good learning curve, anyway

This man: https://bitcointalksearch.org/user/--94037
seems to be suspicious. He requested loan from me, in private message, "for funding new HYIP program".

I made this list yday and since then nckfor has already been outted as a scammer. Look for scams forthcoming from the following users:
c1010010
Cereal
TCollar
Starmie
l0lface
bahehs
nckfor
BobsBurgers
XXthetimeisnowXX

TCollar? Really. I am curious as to why.
I have not requested any money / bitcoin from anyone nor do I plan to. I do not even ask for "tips".
I totally dig your scam exposing posts though so I am not offended that I am on the list.

This genius contacted me on the forums saying that he had bulk btc for sale. He mentions that he has 10,000 BTC asks for international money transfer as payment.
His skype profile says he is from cameroon and only has one skype contact (me).
99,9% this guy is up to no good
His skype username: bitexchanger
