Can we just say "Darwins law" and let it be?
In all seriousness... how do you protect naive people from scams like this? I guess my despair is that: you might protect them from this obvious scam. What if the scam is a little more polished?
I think this kinda thing will always happen to gullible folks. I'm not sure what the solution is.
- PurpleBoxDragon 8y ago>Can we just say "Darwins law" and let it be? Only if we are willing to say the same once someone decides to fight back with actual force. If someone outright kills a scammer doing this, are you willing to write it off as "Darwin's law" and let it be?

- travisoneill1 8y agoWouldn't bother me too much.
- Rjevski 8y agoAt least with conventional scams it’s up to the victim to voluntarily hand over the money to the scammer. In this case it’s different because the government is complicit in the scam and forcefully takes the money from the victim to give to the scammer.

- saalweachter 8y agoSo imagine instead of scammers you had hyenas who lived around a particular stretch of road and ate anyone who wandered by. You could say "Darwin", anyone dumb enough to get eaten deserves it. But you could also say "anything that eats people is gonna get shut down hard", because you don't get to be at the top of the food chain if you let things keep eating you.
