Scammers are the smart ones?

No, they are not. They are pretty stupid.

They are not stupid but wicked, stupid are someone who lack intelligence or common sense while wicked use their wit to do evil things.

If you call a scammer stupid then you have underestimated them because you would not be expecting much from someone who you have called stupid because of their actions, but some of this scammers these days are very intelligent that they can even still fool someone who knows about their existence. Better not to assume their stupidity and pay attention to details because some scams can be really sophisticated.

Underestimate scammers at your own risk, I wouldn't even call them stupid because it takes intelligence and experience to scheme up ways to manipulate other people's intelligence inorder to scam them. To be able to outsmart scammers means that you have to be informed about their fraudulent activities, otherwise they can penetrate their victims as if they need favor from them, and the naive people will fall for their tricks.

I think that the two keys to avoid being scammed is not to be too quick to involve in any online activities that you're not familiar with, don't even try to help, support or engage in business dealings with people online, you need to research and verify first from experienced people or trusted sites for information. Second key factor to being scammed is greed, most victims that falls prey to scams is due to greed, scammers will entice their victims with too good to be true offers.

They would not exist for that long if they know that its easy for them to eliminate. That's why these criminals still exist since they know that there's still a lot of newbies are keep entering the scene since crypto market is gaining a lot of popularity and they take advantage on that situation. We see a lot of them became so innovative and whatever trend release they came up with appealing idea just to get a potential victims of their scheme. Although we know a lot of scams method use but for newbies it will be so hard for them to figure out if they are participating on legit one or just a total scam since they don't have idea on everything about they are newly engaging. Verifying each platform is important if they just do a research first before they invest for sure they might see this forum and can ask about many things that can help them to learn also for their potential investments.
