If the lie is obvious many people will look away out of greed. There's a saying that if you deceive someone then at some level they wanted to be deceived, and while that's pretty self-serving for the criminal there's also a fat grain of truth in it.
> The fault for this lies entirely on the shoulders of the criminal.
Well, technically yes but in reality people are willingly dumb, which rather abets the criminal, no?
I'm afraid we must agree to disagree.

As I said, we are all susceptible to this. I guarantee there are lies you and I will fall for that are obvious to others. Greed is not necessarily a factor. > in reality people are willingly dumb, which rather abets the criminal, no? I don't think more than a tiny percentage of people are willingly dumb. > I'm afraid we must agree to disagree. Fair enough!
