Automatically detecting suspicious vendor activity across multiple markets

There's always risk when ordering from a DNM. Luckily with r/DNM we as a community are able to quickly point out suspicious activity whether it's a vendor or an entire marketplace.

However, I'm sure there are ways to automate some of this by monitoring vendors across multiple markets to look for signs they might be exit scamming, compromised, AWOL, etc.

Here's a few indidicators off the top of my head.

There's probably a lot more than can be done but I'm not entirely sure how far is too far.

Good luck getting the site owners of the DNMs to cooperate. A bot could be created to look out for these things, but it'd be incredibly complicated and I doubt anyone would code one without monetary compensation.

I got some more for you from reading a bunch of articles on Tony76 and the like:

Would be nice...all to often...only 1 market turns at a time, so the scammer can pull the long con.
