I think the scammer is really dumb and it's only rookies that'll fall for this kind of scam. Telling people to buy Bitcoin or other coins and send to him, as what? I want to believe he has other fellow scammers who would be shilling in the comment section probably with screenshots that they sent their coins to the address he provided and he also got instructions from him on what to do, which they followed and they ended up doubling their investment.
The scammer told people who already have wallets to screenshot their wallets that contained the coins and send them to him. Doing this might be harmless but the main scam was when he asked people who do not know much about Bitcoin to send money to him and he would create a wallet for them and make a purchase on their behalf. You will be surprised that many people will fall for this scam and they will end up thinking that the entire Bitcoin space is fraudulent.     

As for the scammer it’s so disheartening that one would intentionally harm his fellow being.
The world is now driven by materialism and the unquenchable desire to get rich. People don't care about the harm they will cause to victims of this scam. They don't care if people will lose life savings and even borrow funds to invest in this scam project. All they want is to steal from people to enable them to live a lavished life.
