There can and will always be scams. If there is a current fake site going around you will know about it. If you already have the correct contact then you won't have to worry about it either way. A yes or a no can't answer this question, if you don't have the correct point of contact, as you still won't know who the real or fake is. So in the end the same rule of thumb applies, stick around, make friends, slowly gain trusted sources.
Not sure how else this is suppose to be answered, unless I'm suppose to PM you their information...
