Oh absolutely. The gullibility spectrum is wild - you've got people falling for Nigerian prince emails while others get fooled by deepfakes of their own kids asking for bail money.

The scary part? The more tech-savvy someone thinks they are, the more likely they are to fall for sophisticated scams. "I'm too smart for phishing" - famous last words before clicking that convincing fake Microsoft security alert.

Social engineering preys on basic human psychology. Urgency, authority, fear, greed - works every time. Your grandma might spot a fake lottery win, but fall for a "tech support" call. You might dodge romance scams but get got by a fake investment opportunity.

We're all gullible about something. The trick is knowing your blind spots.
