Here is a tip that can give you a hint that things are not on the up and up. You see a trust-e or Verisign logo on their website. Yet, when you go to trust-e or Verisign and check the domain, they're not listed.
For example, tradeitsecure is not listed at trust-e
http://www.truste.org/about/member_list.php#T
Yet, they put the banner on their site.
In fact, if you click the trust-e banner, what opens is a window titled "https:/www.truste.org" but the data is actually being transfered from www.tradeitsecure.com/truste/trusteinfo.htm. Classic. Every time I see this kind of BS, I'm amazed that anyone falls for it... but then again someone must because the scams wouldn't exist if they didn't work, right?

I wish everyone would do this sort of due diligence before getting into any of these deals.
They claim they've been in business for 5 years, yet their domain was registered a month ago. They claim to be in the Netherlands, but yet the domain registration and name servers are in China with incomplete WHois info to boot. Fake verisign and Truste info?
If that's not enough to convince anyone that these guys are total ****ing scammers, I don't know what is.
