The notion that pre-orders are scary or generally disallowed has nothing to do with "scams"
I rather liberally misused scam to mean "sloppy or negligent financials" -- like "let's take lots of pre-orders and with those funds maybe we'll be able to make something happen!" When businesses need to front-load financing from their future customers, the likelihood of failure increases dramatically.
