Why people get into so many scams?

Hey there. So I was wondering, why there are actually so many people who complain that they have got scammed many times and here's my theory; like I said this is my opinion, it may be right, it may be wrong.

My opinion is that those people were actually asking for it. What do I mean by that? Well people, including me as well were looking for that "magic pill".

When I was at beginning, I was always looking for earning quick money. Because of this, I always ended up into a kind of "guru" website who claimed that I would earn 10k overnight if I would follow his system. Lucky I hadn't any money to spend on those systems, so I wasn't technically speaking scammed.

This loop of thinking that I would be able to become rich overnight lasted for like 2 years until I actually realised what was the cause.

What was the source cause of this problem ? The way of how we are thinking, our mindset; don't you see how many people are looking for that quick fix? How many ads I see online and on Tv with a product that boom: you just buy it and the pain is over!

Our mindset is set for some reason, on short-term gain and not long-term gain as it should. If it took 3 years to become a fatty don't expect a pill to fix that problem in a matter of days, expect at least 3 years by now, more or less depending on your dedication.

And even when you realize that you need to have a long-term vision, sometimes(at least in my case) you are still thinking at a faster result.

We know the cause, now back to main topic: if you search on google with terms like "fast earn money online" , "get rich quickly" , "how to earn a quick buck", or maybe even some "legit" keywords then you shouldn't wonder why are you getting into trouble: because you asked for it. I mean google just gave you the desired answer.

If I search for terms like affiliate marketing training then I get websites that recommend me Wealthy Affiliate. A coincidence? No, I don't think so.

If you found this website, then you just saw the light from deep darkness. Stick with it.

I know that my post isn't very good, and that I didn't accurately described my point, but I'm still improving my writing ability.

If you have an opinion or a question please leave me a comment,

Cheers,

Gabi

Yes, you're 200% right, these scam products are selling like hot cakes. We're competing with them everyday online. Some buyers of these scams are quite aware that they're scams. My analysis is that if someone is scammed he/she is likely to seek for revenge to console himself/herself, buys it so as to scam others. It's some kind of an eye for an eye phenomenon.
A friend of mine was part of the offline scam (invest $1 000, in 3 months you get $300 more, i.e. $1 300). In which country do you get such interest in 3 months?.
He told me the reason. When they launch the scam, just quickly invest money, on the third month surely they will give you the interest, but be careful after 3 months they'will be gone, because the interest you receive was money deposited by other members, who expect to receive the so called interest. (take money from Halogen & pay Luther). Once you run out of cash "disappear". Sorry for long comment
