It's not a matter of knowing how to find it, its a matter of bothering to look. 

Most users won't bother to look (I haven't in the past). I think platforms can make push a user one way or the other. Telegram pushes users toward not bothering.

took me 10 seconds to find that userID.... you know it?

I am one such dumb user who did not know this.

I still see a difference in ease of scammyness between some communication channels and others. But perhaps the best solution is a platform that only lets users have the name "scammer" so that everyone is always reminded that they could be interacting with a scammer. We could call it scammergram.
