MODERATORS
I mean, everyone is responsible for their own choices. I don't think they deserve to be scammed, that sounds a bit predatory.
They do need to learn their lesson and suffer consequences, however minor, but they don't deserve to be scammed.
The scammer should be punished. Harshly.
Else we wind up in a world where a scam is the only, or at least most prominent, way. As seen with The Cloud, subscription based streaming and "buying", "smart" devices and so on.
I love that "the price is right" for "best features are MIA". Also, the wikipedia article is funny.
Do the uninformed people that just see the design and promise deserve to be scammed? Even if the only reason might be to not further enable the scammer, the scammed people don't deserve their fate.
I say all this but I still cannot comprehend how someone would buy this.
