The reason is that, greed remains one of the basic human traits. You can claim otherwise, but the truth is that every single human being is cursed with greed. The level may vary. Now what makes scams possible is the deadly combination of greed, lack of intelligence and inexperience. People with all these three characteristics have a much greater chance of getting scammed, when compared to the others.
the outline is gluttony. however, I agree if the other factor is ignorance of what is invested and in a hurry. they are not looking for information about it. however, it's okay to be greedy, but it needs to be combined with the knowledge, and also patience. however, the greedy nature of humans is very difficult to remove.

It’s easier for people to cheat than to work honestly. My conscience would never allow me to deceive a person, which is probably why I am still poor ....
And there's nothing wrong about it, you should stand proud despite of having such status Smiley! Remember that MONEY isn't everything in this world. Yeah it was essential for living but life is more than that. If I have to choose, I would still go with clear conscience despite of being poor because the fulfillment of having pure heart is the real happiness you can get Smiley.
Continue playing fair and square.

I just want to say that the world is not fair. Those people who cheat, live well, who honest is constantly experiencing difficulties not only financially. What is it? Paradox or modern pattern ?!

Crypto is not a religion but i like it
Question level "why is the sky blue".
How does it work? Cryptocurrency is constantly gaining popularity -> new people come with zero iq -> fall into a new environment of “fast money” - > get scammed -> cry on the entire Internet that BTC is only for drug market and human trafficking, and  there are only scammers
Scammers as club security who don't let people in who don't pass the iq test.

I myself consider a pro crypto investor and trader but I too has been scammed multiple times. Most of the times it was avoidable. The largest mistake I make is to believe in something and act quickly. Acting quickly can be good for a trade but you need to be sure you are sending your money to the right place. Attractive investment, cheaper exchange rates and too good to be true promises should be double checked.

There are still victim to obvious scam in the crypto project . The reason behind this because of greed and selfishness . Another reason is due to their ignorance as everyone is not aware of most of new cryptocurrency. Do a research first , than make some decision to go . So be careful don't be a victim to obvious scam !!

I love to trade crypto & hold it for future profit
Why do people still fall victims to obvious scams? Especially on twitter people are still sending bitcoin to traders, no one is a perfect trader, do not send bitcoin or other coins to people to trade for you, its stupid and foolish idea

Today a bitcoin trader on twitter exit scam and delete all traces off social media, i heard its about 53bitcoin, here is the link to the news

https://coinnewstelegraph.com/bitmex-bitcoin-fund-manager-exit-scams-before-christmas/

Pls stop, there is no such thing as easy money, its either you learn or you quit or else you will keep losing money

I think now a days as we know most of the countries are lock-down due to COVID-19. Therefore new people trying to join different online projects, airdrops, bounties, giveaways etc. New people haven't guideline regarding projects that's why they are participating in fake and scam project.

very stupid if someone is fooled by the lure that does not mean sense. basically do not turn to crypto at all if you do not know anything before it is learned.
sending bitcoin to strangers is a reckless act.

Smile! Once you are looking for the fastest way to make more money within tinkle of an eye you will definitely fall victim. Is better for you to learn and know more about crypto before you start investing in it.

It obvious that scam will never end as long as business is concern but at the same time with some level of due deligence and deep search one can easily dictect a scam from legit. Trading in as much as it deserve some level of expert still can be learn instead of sending found to another person to trade for you which most time lead to scam.

All I can say about this is that greediness is the major cause of people getting scam,  imagine someone giving you ridiculous discount that an exchange cannot give you in buying bitcoin or other altcoins,  some people got scammed by joining ponzi also despite all what they have seen from people who had got scammed,  all they keep saying is that they just wanna cash out once then stop,  whereby they won't have the opportunity to cash out at all, Greediness is what led most being scammed

The Greed for easy money is one of the things that pushes people into making such bad decisions, how can you trust someone on Twitter to the extent of sending your BTC to help you trade, I think this can happen to only newbies although I might be wrong. Also, I agree with you, it is either you take the pains and make efforts to learn it or keep falling victim of scams. For everything in this world have a knowledge backing it up, and it must be learnt to be perfect in that field; the crypto space isn't exempted either.

People who got scammed are got baited by ponzi scheme that already made people rich but not realizing they're going to be next target. Never trust someone on social media, especially regarding money. So don't expect you to get rich quickly in crypto-world, you need broader insights and insights deeper than what we dreamed of because its a vast world .  I hope this bad experience can be a lesson for them to be better in the future . I always saying that only greedy people lost in this game.

Campaign Management?"Hhampuz" is the Man
Scammers offer something that can make people rich in a short way but surprisingly there are so many investors who have lots of money that are stupid (just arrived at crypto). don't have much knowledge in crypto and don't know the risks that will be experienced
scammers now can act as normal account mate meaning they can hide like nothing is different from natural offering.
there are some scam issue here that the scammer attract investors because
of their usual encouraging and not like
the past style in which they will color your eyes with huge profit,now they act as is.
There are a lot of people who are actually new to this, they can be an easy target for scammers.
even not those new but the lazy accounts to check and verify those offerings.this will lead them to become a victim since most of the answer we need can be found via internet.
