Sometimes I don’t blame these scammers, but people who are falling into the trap because knowledge is very important. Many people need quick money, and they think crypto will do that for them. Instead of learning before they do everything, they are too lazy to do that. And that is why they fall victim to the scammers. Just like your friend, now I can’t someone blame those scammers for scamming her even though she is a newbie.
Why did she not ask or learn before doing that? I believe next time she won’t do that again because, in my opinion, everything you want to do as long as it requires money, learn about it before taking any further steps. Bit newbies fail to do that.
One thing you should realize is that, regardless of your level of intelligence, anyone may be scammed in one way or another. Some people will believe that there is no tactic a scammer can use to deceive them, but it is a lie; what we can wish for is we never fall for it and lose our money. Each path that involves money needs a regular education, even for those who are not new to investing. It's not a good idea to stop learning because we are always discovering new things. It requires a lot of knowledge and understanding, which cannot be acquired in a single day.
Social media has really messed some people up not only by convincing them to invest in shitcoin but by also making one lose everything they have in their wallet more especially newbie. Some weeks ago a friend of mine lost everything in her wallet just by clicking on a link they said she's going to make a lot of money and this look so good to be a lie but because she's still new and she thinks that's how she's going to turn rich in a twinkling of an eye not knowing she's going to lose everything. We should be very careful on what we see or hear online even offline.
However, this type of story happens on the forum every day; people constantly complain that they were interrupted by online platforms clicked on a link and got scammed. I believe that if your friend was a member of this forum or was aware that social media has ruined some people's lives after they clicked on any link they came across, she would have avoided the link immediately. I think you should tell her more about this forum; it may benefit her in the future.
