Others are giving you answers from a moral perspective, but let me give one from a practical one, as I suspect you won't be amenable to the moral one.
The primary reason is because if you are not "in the know" so to speak, it won't be you who will take advantage of others, it will be you who will be taken advantage of. You think (and I mean you as in not just you personally but more broadly) you're the first one to think of minting NFTs by hiring artists on Upwork? No, that has been known since NFTs became popular. It takes quite a bit of money to mint, and the vast majority of creators won't ever see positive ROI. You think you're the only one who wants to cash in on coins to get rich quick? Well, that's what everyone wants to do, until the rug gets pulled.
People in crypto are not as stupid and gullible as you think. They are just as smart and have likely been pulling scams since before the crypto days. Take care not to fall victim to them yourself all the while thinking you'll be the one outscamming them.
