It's hard for a day to pass without somebody trying to scam us, but the sad part is that we tend to only hear of the most common grifts after they've already taken a lot of people for money they couldn't afford to lose.
That's why there are so many people out there who make a sport out of messing with them and it's why that never stops being satisfying to see.
But while it's fun to watch a scammer get annoyed or scared off, it's leagues better than one of them actually gets caught. And it's all the more satisfying when this involves them triggering a trap that likely makes them feel stupid.
