In case that was not a troll... This statement is absolutely wrong. You make it sound like everyone is being rational all the time. Scams are at a similar level of credibility and they do work very well in practice. If I'm told I won't be able to pay rent next month despite working three jobs, which already stressed me out to no end, then it can definitely happen. But that's not all. Even if we stay rational, we still have the responsibility to consider that the account had been hacked, or that an accounting error happened, etc. That will take some time to resolve. Maybe I'll incur financial cost in addition to wasted time, e.g. by canceling a credit card or involving a lawyer. What will you do if your prank made me panic, or made me waste resources? Will you take responsibility? Do you think Deliveroo would find it funny if I send them a bomb threat in response? It's just a joke after all! Yes they had to close their office and it cost them millions, but... it was just a prank, so chill, dude. Haha. It's a funny as hitting someone's head with a shovel.
