Any files that SyncDiscs removes are copied to the scrap path.

Presumably the program assumes you don't do anything barmy like set up recursive synchronisation. Some versions have the ability to ignore certain zones (or paths). I suppose it would be easy enough to add your scrap path to the zones.
Obviously ideally the program should protect you from such things, and I've just outlined a simple way that it could be modified to do that.
