You're right, but it's also normal for people to be ashamed of getting scammed and not come forward. I have a friend who got scammed by altcoiners and lost most of his BTC even though I warned him many times. He didn't tell me this for many years because he was ashamed. At this time he doesn't have any chance of buying so many Bitcoins again ever in his life. Leaving those messages up for so much time (at least an hour) was unacceptable anyways. When I was holding a pager for a product that impacted millions of people, my job was to mitigate all problems that could affect them as soon as I could.

They were actually still up many hours later and hidden for browsers only by javascript. Pretty remarkable when you consider that almost all of them had a bitcoin address or similar in them and could have been safely substring matched.
