Scam websites dominate the internet, scamming people to buy products and services from those sites. People usually end up getting cheated as a result.
Social media is also used mostly for scams.
A friend of mine recently fell victim to an internet scam. The shoes he ordered online on the internet did not match those he received when he received his order.
In response to his complaints, they block him from contacting them. Scams of this kind occur online with people.
As soon as they get money, they block the people and disappear. People are affected by it most of the time.
