Yes, I think you can make it at least 20 post. PhotoMalaysia requires 50 posts. This method/system can help reduce fraud/scam but not eliminating it. Most spammers do not have the patient to post 50 posts. Also amend your T&C and/or R&R so that all "for Sale" or "[WTS]" must be in classify section, and empower you & moderator to delete any buy/sell posted elsewhere. You don't have to put in your effort to move it to correct section for them.
The following from Photo Malaysia:
