Adding a time limit to make a scam report

[Dessi]

Hello,

So I never really realized that there is no time limit to make a scam report until today. There is a huge need for this because say you were involved in something that happened 1-5 years ago the person could have chosen to make a scam report then but instead chose not to. Thus making your memory a bit hard on the exact details (and the person filling as well) With that being said there should still be ample time to file a scam report which is around 90 days. If you choose not to file one in that time you shouldn’t be able to file on at a later date.

Scammers are still scammers regardless of how much time has passed. People could simply wait until years after a deal to scam somebody out of a product and get away with it.

Indeed, this is more of a pressing concern than the possibility of someone creating a scam report for someone scamming 5 years ago. If someone creates a scam report they must have the proof of it happening, and so it's not really going to happen in a situation where only one person has access to the information.

Changing our policy on this doesn't make sense when the policy that we have at the moment hasn't been exploited and changing it would just lead to bigger issues.

Denied, thanks for the suggestion
