    That victim reminded me of an incident witnessed by my brother Tim - he saw a woman at the drugstore in a heated argument with the clerk over gift cards - the clerk told the woman she was being scammed and the woman would have none of it - the argument went on for several minutes. Ultimately the woman stormed out because the clerk refused to sell her the gift cards - no doubt the woman went to another store to try to buy the cards. There is an old saying that it is easier to scam somebody than to convince a person that they have been scammed.

    You did a good job in helping stop the money going to the scammers. It's strange how some people think it's normal to put a lot of money in a box and send it to some random address because someone on the phone tells them to do it.

    Had a scam like this in Germany, played allong and send them a tight packed box of vaccum sealed Yeast fresh from the bottom of my fermenting bucket. Nicke thing is when you seal the Stuff mit some extra sugar, and wrap the small brick good with tape before putting it into an box......it will explode when you cut into it with an boxcutter.
    One liter rancid fermented yeast, on a nice summer day, delivered to Berlin on a hot summer day in August 2015

    The reason it's easier to scam someone than to convince someone they've been scammed is because of the human ego. Nobody likes the idea that they can be fooled or get had by a scammer because they feel embarrassed by the simple mention of it. The ego is one of the greatest tools but also the most common and destructive downfall of mankind. Very little of what you do in your day to day life isn't driven somehow by your ego. Very little. Often even the kind things we do is driven by our ego and sense of self.

      5 days then I went back home and heard my mom got scammed $13k by the exact same group, with the exact method as I told her 5 days before.
      She said "who even knew they are scammer", I replied "I warned you last week", then I got mad at for the whole week.
      For some reason she didn't want to report to the police, and didn't even give me the scammers' phone number so I can report it myself.
      I just feel sad....

      Remember reading a study about how it's easier to scam someone with a high intelligence due to them overestimating their intellect. They think they are above being scammed by people stupider than they are.
      It teaches you 2 things:
      1. Just because you're a genius on one subject doesn't mean you're not an idiot.
      And
      2. Until proven otherwise, view everyone you meet as either just as or more intelligent than you. That way you're always on guard.
