It is not a gainsaying that scam website is taking over almost everyday. Many people have even seen online money as a dubbed way of earning illegally. The following may be some of these reasons why people engage in scam:

Gullibility of the people: those that start scam websites always want to take advantage of the online users gullibility. Most people that use online media believe all what they see and they can easily be tricked.

The anonymity nature of the online platform. It is difficult if not impossible to know who's behind the button on online media making it easier to dupe people.

Yes, you have hit the nail on the head . Scam thrive because of gullibility of the people: those that start scam or create websites to scan always want to take advantage of ignorance and greedy people. Some people behave very foolish and greedy and fails to see the red flag. When once you agree and believe all what you see or hear you would be surely scammed or easily be tricked by frsudsters

Yes another one is anonymity nature of the online platform.
