Ah, so it's a decline in skepticism leading to increased trust in scammers' stated intentions.
Well, even if we think we know another's intentions, that doesn't mean we value them. I think everyone has good intentions, but I don't base My actions on those intentions. I think even if assumptiveness is prevalent, intentionalism still must be high as well to explain the society we currently live in.
