Leon, have you experienced any breach of the PM system? I've always used a PM first and exchanged emails with the other party after that. Of course, if they have a low post count I'll usually vet them before exchanging information.
If the scammers are "registered" even though they really aren't, as we are seeing, then they can PM. All registered members can PM.

The DCM character is the one that scammed the gentleman I referred to in my previous post. All I can say is members need to do their homework and make sure the members they deal with are who they say they are and are approved, registered members. This guy has 0 posts. That is a HUGE red flag and almost always a scammer. Just look at stuff, folks....PM me, it's not overwhelming. I always answer them and usually quickly....
