Scammers

I am finding that a good amount of people I am dealing with on Bigger Pockets are scammers.   Not sure if this is a common occurence for most or just me because I am new to BP and new to the area I live although not new to real estate investing.  My wife is a real estate agent and just had a member claim he was an agent where he said he was not and mistyped it and then went from saying he was wholesaling a deal to selling the house then got mad when I asked him questions to clarify what was going on with the deal and last week I believe I had a similar situation.  I love the podcasts but not finding quality people to work with on the website always.  Is there a way to report these scammers?

You always have to do your due diligence on any potential deal, whether it came from BP or from Craigslist, or from someone selling deals out of the back of a van.
