This will always happen.
As I crafter, what I do is I make the time first, then exchange it for payment.
I generally only take mats from friends to make stuff with, not strangers, because with friends, if I fail, we can always get to an arrangement. I only stuff I already made or know without a doubt I can make for strangers.
Now the HQ item issue... there is nothing, absolutely nothing, wrong with asking a significantly higher price. It IS significantly better and so is worth more. No scam there.
However!
The crafter, in all fairness, should always offer the option of making another item, without getting that Quality too high (Rapid spam) and sell it at the originally agreed price.
As for a scammer list... Meh, go for it if you want.
I personally don't care. Half of it would end up being slander and rumors sooner or later. I prefer to simply trade completed items for payment in one trade, it's pretty scam-proof.
If I am to give mats for someone to craft something with, I'll seek friends/shell-mates.
