The problem is people are too greedy, they are looking for means to double their assets so whenever a good offer is tender in front of them they take it and its nothing but bait, crypto space will teach many newbies and even old users to be humble by force, right now not even airdrops and free offers are safe anymore.
Your comment lends credence to what I indicated earlier in this thread. Greed is always the bane of eager free receivers. How can someone expect to receive where they didn't sow? Scam victims of this nature don't deserve to be pitied at all. I like sounding a bit nonchalant on this because the supposed victims are those who have a mindset of finding a shortcut to wealth. Otherwise they should know that making riches is a gradual thing. People should avoid any investment or engagement with mouth watery offers. The end thereof is often disastrous.
