Serious discussion. I personally was never raised to act that way or do stupid shit like that. Some people literally have no remorse for anything and just continue to do it.

 

I am curious to what you guys think.

Greed, probably the most common 'excuse' so to speak

I was about to say greed too. But yeah. Perhaps it's free cash when one succeeds easily, which spurs them on to continue further?.... 

money motivates the scam?  

pretty obvious answer if you ask me...

Some people do it as a challenge just to see how much they can end up making

people who don't realise the consequences/value of money and/or are normally too young to be handling sums on the internet

good question..

 

probably poor 

Its easy to scam and its free money + you are scamming someone over the internet someone you will prob not meet ever in your life

 

After the scam is done they wont even give much thought about it unless it was a big sum and will promply forget that the victim even existed

 

I guess most of the scammers are done with black market  and they decide to leave forever and why not scam some? They wont be coming back and could fill their pockets

idk how people scam I would feel so bad for the person after

 coming from personal experience?

A quick buck probably. Like one said above normally too young to understand the consequences. Scam you make a quick buck but will always earn more in the long run being legit!

From what i've seen, a lot of people not all of them but a vast majority run into problems in their lives.


Think of it this way, if you're addicted to smoking (like many), or you're addicted to say alcohol or drugs, can you just simply give that up? Of course you cant, not until it slaps you in the face and tells you to stop - The same concept here really, but instead of the majority of it being elderly men/women, these are teenage boys/girls.


When you are a teenager, you feel that you are unstoppable, you can accomplish anything and everything and defeat the world in a single breath, but in reality you dig yourself into a bigger and bigger hole, that hole for us who are in black market forums often leads to scamming as a way out, it can be something as simple like they don't have something you do, or they are wanting to level their account but don't want to put the time and effort in on top of more further extents.

I don't condone scamming, never have and never will. Scamming is the online term of theft, would you walk to your local store and steal from it? If you're a dumbass yes, but the fact there isn't much action taken against someone other than them being banned on the forums and it's over with makes them continue and continue.

not having a father 

I think if someone is desperate for money (I.e relatively poor) while having a super high value of money (I.e relatively young)
