We learn from a lot of sources. One of them is our mistakes. Newbies often fall prey of them and thats all the scammers need. In that sense it is useless to fight the scammers since someone will always get scammed and that there is no other way of controlling them on this forum. So what we have to do is to make people aware, since that is the only option left in our hands.
Right, as the saying goes, experience is the best teacher. And no matter how many times we call this scammers from Youtube/Google Ads/Twitter, someone will still get scammed. I wouldn't say that what we are doing is futile though, but it will take a lot of efforts from us to keep newbies getting scammed by this "simply" trick, so simply that they think it is really true.
