We’ve been asking ourselves this about email spam for several decades now.
I think we’re vastly overestimating human intelligence. There’s obviously enough completely clueless people out there that will buy what these spammers are selling.
Morning radio show I used to listen to talked all the time about the crap they bought off Instagram and tiktok ads. Like, ALL THE TIME. My ex and her family also bought a fair bit off of those sort of ads. Some type of people are just susceptible to it and others aren’t.
I’m not normally in favor of the death penalty, but I think we need public executions for spammers.
I heard it said that spam is intentionally badly written because they don’t want people who can figure out it’s a scam to actually click the links.
