They don't just start a scam. They study the population. They conduct research and tests. They train people. The hold meetingtos to improve their processes and craft. They probably have documentations too!</p><p>Just like any other businesses.</p><p>For example. If you want to start scamming Filipinos in the Philippines, you don't want to start a housing scam or a home renovation scam. You also don't want to start a credit card, debit card, bank account, scam/phishing. Not going to work. Oh sure, maybe you'll be able to scam a hundred or so, and that's a very generous figure. Like any other business, you don't start a scamming business that won't produce good and sustainable results.</p><p>Yet, home renovation scams are popular in Japan. Card and bank account phishing scams are common in South Korea.</p><p>Late road tolls payment is a thing in the US of A.</p><p>Are you familiar with "genius and pschopathy are two sides of the same coin"? Yeah, "businesses and scams are two sides of the same coin" too. 😝</p><p>And like with some genius and psychopathy folks where they successfully use both sides of the coin, there are also folks who are experts in running a legitimate scamming business, or legitimate businesses scamming people.</p><p>They're not easy to spot. They probably hold a Masters Degree in Scamming, I mean, Masters Degree in Business Administration.</p><p><a href="https://c.im/tags/RandomThoughts" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>RandomThoughts</span></a> 🤪</p>
