Tell me...
You know how much a Furai or a Mazda6 costs from the game ?.1500gems..approx 25bucks. How can you justify an in game trading system with these prices when from the bm such cars cost merely 3bucks ?? The bm is curbing the game from selling the in game showroom cars at these ridiculous prices. They can never officially support the trading aftermarket you are suggesting.,!!
Plus they don't care if you get scammed or not..pinking or trading is entirely up to you..you are your own boss at that and the risk is entirely yours.
(Puts on business hat and clears throat)

To answer your question: I would say from a pure business standpoint is to make money. Players are getting scammed everyday and will continue to or just stop playing. Carbonated can make money from something that is going to occur anyway. I would like to say I’m not suggesting a trading system. This would be a true marketplace where sellers can your turfs for anything in game which includes cars, in game cash, gems, boost.
1. To have all the items the seller is requesting in return 2. To have a purchase ticket which you would need to buy from carbonated
Example pricing:
1 purchase ticket $1.99
3 purchase tickets $4.99
10 purchase tickets $9.99
Everyone wins!!!
Seller gets to sell their car to someone they might otherwise not be able to reach through sell groups chats and get all in game items they want.
Buyer get car they want and no fear of ever getting scammed
Carbonated makes money on the transaction and player confidence/moral goes up!!!!
Also you "conservative number of saying half those trades are scamms". Try closer to 10% or less of trades end up being actual scams. Visit the trade section here for every 200-300 legit deals there is an actual scam.......then the scammer is black balled.
And if I end up needing to pay the game devs to do a trade I will quit and you will see many more people quit also than do from scamming. No one I repeat no one that trades legit now will pay to trade with a market place. Sorry it will not happen.
That said scammers and trades, does do on thing, Those scammed will probably spend money, to get their prized car back. That is a reason to not support trades, No policing, but all the profit. If they really didn't want trades, it could be bannable
Obviously what @crazyjr said is also very true. They will shoot themselves in the foot. They would need to police everything.
