    Why do people scam?
    Don't scammers understand in the long run you will make more money being a legit seller/shop/whatever. Instead they decide to scam over a petty 5$-500$, or whatever the price. It just doesn't make sense to me.

    Why do people scam?
    Being a legit seller and doing opening up a shop requires patience and dedication. Most scammers don't have patience

    "In the long run"

    People usually scam because they need the money for something.

    No police station is going to launch an international/interistate internet scam for virtual gold worth less than a few hundred dollars.

    Why do people scam?
    They don't have patience or don't want to put in time and effort to open a store. They'd rather scam for the $100 and be done with it

    They don't know there's something like business which is way more profitable than scamming

    The rush of getting away with it for some people, a likeness shared with IRL thieves.

    That, and running a business takes work which is something that I'm sure most scammers aren't interested in.
