It is also important to not overestimate ourselves, because even if we know a great deal of the tactics that a scammer can employ against us, we are not infallible, so if the circumstances are right we may walk right into their trap without really knowing what we are doing and lose our money to them, and then we may wonder how this may have happened to us, so it should be clear that anyone can become the victim of a scam if at the time they are not careful about how they deal with the scammer right in front of them.
Sometimes that's the reason why someone involved in the crypto space needs to have a community. They can come to forums and ask questions about something they doubt, ask in telegram groups or any other discussion space, of course this way they can get information and avoid fraud attempts. But greed has sometimes led them to try and fall victim, even when they know that there is a potential scam that is targeting them.
In the end, fraudsters don't always target weak people with little knowledge, they also target strong people with the right knowledge. Fraudsters are intelligent people and have many ways of carrying out their actions, so it is not surprising that they sometimes succeed in making rich, knowledgeable people their victims.
