The results from this relies entirely on the honesty of those polled.
Now think about that.
That was literally my first thought.
Maybe boomers are more embarrassed about being scammed (or just more private in general), and so basing all this on a self-reported study seems like a bit of a shaky foundation.
Would be great if they had some more data that wasn’t from self-reporting…
90% of the time they’re too stupid to even realize they’ve been scammed, and yes, they’ll fall for the exact same shit twice, even three times. For a point of reference, imagine someone your age on their 4th crypto rugpull and replace that with a Nigerian prince.
Lol I “fall” for scams to waste their time between meetings while I’m working on other shit. I fuck with the scammers just to troll them, and I’m proud of that.
