idea to prevent scamming

Excellent idea.

but im having soooo much fun mocking the people who try and pose as the real winner.

I'm not clear how that prevents scamming though?

Well emailing would be easter but you could just add them through the winner of the box thing

I've been suggesting that for quite a while, but not yet accepted/not accepted.

People should learn try to prevent being scammed.

First, check the winner profile link

Second, check the friend link

Third, see if they matched

If yes, gift him/her

If no, block

are people retarded? :D just use the email your being provided..... scam solved.

As some posters above, been suggesting and waiting for this for quite a while now. I think it would be a great feature.

Good idea, that would put an end to all scammers :)

It would probably require a major rework of the site.

The way to circumvent this is to simply scrape the profiles of all users constantly and query what stuff they've won.

Thus you'd also have to ensure that
1) It doesn't show up on the gift page
2) Doesn't show up on the main page
3) Doesn't show up as 'won' on the user's profile
4) Doesn't show up on the 'gifters' user profile
Until it is verified by the winner

Not impossible but it does require a lot of logic rework I think

This has been suggested many times over and cg has been looking at a way to properly implement. We appreciate your patience.

Nice idea.
