There’s gotta be some crazy scam that will work on me that I’ve never heard of. Every time a new one comes around its always something that throws a ton of red flags out the whole way. They have to be just catching people with particular blind spots
It’s a numbers game (pun not intended but, hey, if it works I’m alright with it) - use an automated method to send a no-cost/ultra-cheap message to millions of people, swindle the small fraction of those who fall for it.

They do, yeah. It’s part of their strategy, actually. Henry Gullible doesn’t ask too many questions.
