Did you know that simply by having an online presence makes you a target to be scammed, to become a victim of cyber crime. The image of a scruffy looking lone scammer, working from an internet cafe is a MYTH! It is also a myth that only stupid people get scammed. Scams are orchestrated by highly sophisticated and well organised groups of people who form part of a syndicate and work within a network that operates with military precision. They are experts in mind control and alienating clients or victims from their circle of trust.


***It is simply a myth that only stupid people get scammed.

***People fall for scams out of curiosity and because they are unaware that scammers are #online everywhere. 

***In the scam process victims are attracted by false information. They are  indoctrinated via mirror techniques into believing that what never existed is the answer to their happiness. In the process of getting scammed clients completely forget that they were happy to begin with. Scammers are adept at creating a phantom emotionally charged dependancy relationship that feels real to the clients without them even realising it.

***To illustrate why people who got scammed are not stupid.  Not  knowing how to fly an airplane does not make a person stupid. It makes you uninformed, or untrained to fly an airplane, NOT uneducated. You may be well educated in various fields just not in the field or area of scams.

***Scam syndicates work almost with military precision. They are a group of people who are experts in the art of mind games and manipulation and isolate "clients" (victims) from their circle of trust and make them feel like they are alone or lonely and they they need this relationship with the so-called scammer.  Once hooked there is no turning back. The client is now under their control, a human ATM machine and they can withdraw funds at will. They will withdraw funds until there is nothing and even then convince the client to borrow or do whatever it takes for them to make a withdrawal. 

***People are rendered dazed and confused. They don't even know which way is up. Let alone anything else. All they want to do is to continue to communicate and pursue the plans that they believed that they had. Even when they are informed of what happen to them, they are confused and in negation.

Then, along comes a helper and call the scammed person a victim. Tells that person that their dignity and self esteem have been robbed and it is like tossing that person to the deepest end of the ocean. People do not lose their dignity nor their self esteem unless they chose to do so. We need to remind the survivors of scam about those facts.

Amazing is to see that the scammed person has severely compromised their finances. This, causes an urgent need for new life plans. Yet, they are superficially concerned about that fact, if at all. Their main concern, is to reconnect with the scammer, regardless of the cost.  

***CONFUSION is the main reason why a scam survivor does not make their situation evident. Where to go? What to do? What really happened? 

***People being unconcerned about the situation, tend to further punish the scam survivor in the same way that they punish a homeless person or a hungry animal.

***Education is key to combatting Cyber Crime such as scams.
