Most people who fall for romance scams deserve to be scanned.
They aren't good people, they're usually just stupid and horny.
People who send money to sick kids or animal shelters or whatever else like that, these are good kind people who do so out of empathy.
That's the difference.
And majority of the scammers are hungry, that's why they end up working for those gangs that organise the scams.
They don't have the opportunities to pursue better careers.
