Why scammers still do it?

in #hive3 years ago

Are they just trying their 🤔 luck...?

No 🤦‍♀️🤦‍♂️ ... and I mean, a big NO! 😩

Scammers are just immature/inexperienced people that for some reason don't value their life enough to understand what they want for their own lives or their dear ones (even if they don't have anyone dear to them).

The main purpose, in most of the attempts, is based on the fact they think no one will ever discover. Similar to how a wife/husband cheats with someone else and pretends to her/him self that everything will be alright... scammers do the same.

They just like to close their eyes and try to outsmart someone based on what they think is their knowledge and potential reward. And that's usually where they fail...

🦊 Hackers and 🙈🙉🙊 Scammers

There is even no comparison here... and the only reason I have put both on the same line is exactly to highlight the evidence of how different they are. If you don't understand, then I would really encourage you to read a bit more about the first word.

And this also takes me to the next point, which is, intelligence. You see... scammers are not necessarily intelligent, and most of the time, just stupid people naíve enough to go ahead with what they think they can do, even if they have no opinion about whether that will or not work. Usually, hypocrisy blind believers or arrogant idiots that don't know where to spend their time.

On the other hand, hackers are usually intelligent people and they need to actually think and plan before acting. Contrary to what many may think the word means, being a hacker is not related to being a bad person or causing harm (just because you hold a gun does not mean you are a criminal). Hacking is actually an art to many and is usually only successfully practiced by very intelligent people. Go read about history about hacking and hackers in the 90s for example and who did what, and you will get a glimpse of what I mean.

The 🙄 Reputation of 🥴 Stupidity

Scammers have a big defect (or detectable flaw the least) and usually sooner or later they will reveal themselves... When their "price" mark is hit, they become desperate and stupid.

And basically, that's when their bad perception of life value becomes messed up for the effort of the scam. It's just a matter of value difference between their lives and what they are seeking to get, which is easily exploitable with a few tricks. Especially in the crypto world... 🤑

Hence, sometimes they think higher reputation people are easy targets because they must be stupid? Does not really make sense but ok... 🤣 LOL

Either way...

The main reason I wanted to bring this for people to read is twofold.

First, because I want to tease the idiot ones that still think that now they can spend even more time trying scams (especially if against me).

Go! Gooo... go lose your time LOL... do it against me especially.

I really don't care... or do I? Maybe there is a hidden message here... are you (scammer) dumb enough for not caring too? 🤣

And on the other side, I wanted to let everyone know that there is only the blockchain way (not really but you get the idea) to verify if it's really me (or you) and on that, I will leave it on you to decide what that means. Just be smart... and think about all possible ways you could fake identity... try to be a "hacker", and you will figure it out very easily.

Stay safe and enjoy life!

scammer just go away....

I thinkscammers still exist cause still exist people that believe in "easy safe high return no risk investiment".

All scam story i check is someone that send money to someone else expecting easy return.

Ok. Maybe some of them not. Maybe Ingenuity to enter in some scheme... But always trying the easy way with previous study.

They will learn that the world is listening... and there are actually people just waiting for scammers... to feed on them... just like an oligarch... they just don't understand they are puppets and the ones that have enough, easy prey for who knows when to attack.

I don't have time anymore for this mentality because I got sick of chasing small fish (even if important ones). Now I just go for what I like, no questions nor answers...

I usually go very well, but maybe because of experience. Otherwise, I would lose lots as I did in the past.

At least we can fun playing with them, the scammers, they are quite easy to bait!

!1UP

I usually revise their own technique and give it away for any people to take advantage of. Especially if they are up to something like strategy in order to take something up in the future.
