There is no way to prevent every scam if you want to take that chance.
Long standing member's accounts have been hacked.
Thank you for re-opening old wounds. 
Seriously, though, if I hadn't been online at the moment that hack happened, I shudder to think of the damage that would have resulted. I couldn't fix anything but at least I could get the word to those who could.
ETA - I feel much better now that I'm using TFA on here. I firmly believe everyone should do the same.

We should form an Anarcho-Sydicalist commune. We'll take turns to act as sort of an executive officer of the week to determine who can sell in the classifieds.
But all the decisions of that officer have to be ratifed at special bi-weekly meetings by a simple majority, in the case of purely internal affairs, but by a 2/3rds majority in more...
Mods? Order us around? Who do they think they are?

I remember logging on and seeing that. I was so confused.
I wore that badge proudly.
When I saw that show up on you, I thought WTF? That’s the most level headed guy I’ve ever met from the forum.
I just thought “ damn, must have hurt the wrong communist’s feelings , this sucks”
And TFA is - ?
Two factor authentication.
Log in and after you send your password you get an email with a code you must enter to complete the login. IOW, you must be in control of both your TGT password and your email to successfully log in.
Well when an established member is doing the selling, and other well known members and a moderator vouch for the guy, it can be very enticing.
I can't say I got much out of the string of recent new posts.
I got a new idea: You cannot sell anything for more dollars than you have typed words in your first 25 posts. So, if your first 25 posts only contain 30 words, then you can only sell your AR-15 package or Glock whatever for $30.

Or we could implement the above..
What you may want to consider and it may well generate donations from current members who are not currently donating members, is that you require a regular donation of $25 to be able to enter the for sale area to post in the for sale & WTB threads, entry into those threads would be a benefit of donating plain and simple - with no other way to get into those threads. Leave it simple like that - no donation / no admittance to the sale & WTB threads and thus no overabundance of ridiculous meaningless posts to reach number 25 for new members who want to sell. I would think that the regular $25 donation fee would be the way to go because it would eliminate lots of ridiculous threads, it would be kept simple and $25.00 for the privilege of posting in the for sale & WTB threads is not a large cash burden for someone seeking to to sell items or look for items for sale. More revenue for the site is my bet as the result; maybe there would be a few less postings of things for sale (by tightwads) but my guess is that most dedicated & serious members and all serious sellers or WTB folks would be willing to cough up the clams and it would benefit the site's coffers.
By the way, using this site is well worth a $25 annual donation. Now that I have written that, someone remind me if I am up to date as being a donating member. I just renewed on another forum, that one says donated member under my avatar, this one does not and I do not see a way to check on that myself. Thanks.
Edited to add: While I was sure I had donated recently, I guess not since I did not see the TGT Supporter banner under my avatar, so I just donated. I hope this thread https://www.texasguntalk.com/threads/donations.44751/ showed the correct way to donate, to be considered a TGT supporter otherwise some guy named Alan LaFrance just got $25 richer.
