That almost exists with things like helpex already. I'm not sure if there's some variant for paid work. My parents have a farm and have had a bunch of backpackers stay. Some of them definitely did have some stories about being cheated etc.
However, it's a bit different to what op is looking for as it's just a bit of work for food and accommodation, as opposed to full days of work for pay.
On the whole I think the majority do the right thing, but there are definitely enough that are dodgy to create a bad reputation
