Extended data:

Although there are various forms of fraud, grasping these characteristics in some similarities can avoid going astray and falling into a trap. What's more, many scammers are not very smart, and the main reason for being cheated is the victim himself. Generally speaking, the victims have some bad or naive psychological consciousness, which is the key to the easy success of fraudsters. Under normal circumstances, the following kinds of bad psychological consciousness are easy to be used by fraudsters:

(1) vanity;

(2) sympathy and pity without analysis;

(3) the psychology of taking advantage of small things;

(4) rashness, credulity, paralysis and lack of sense of responsibility;

(5) Love leisure and hate work, daydreaming;

(6) Greedy consciousness of beauty;

(7) Psychological qualities such as being susceptible to hints and temptations.

Take students as an example

1, simple thinking and poor resolution.

Many students from primary school, middle school to university have the experience of "ten years of cold window", with little contact with society and simple thoughts; Lack of proper discrimination on some people or things, and lack of habit of asking questions. The analysis of things often stays on the surface, or does not analyze at all, which gives fraudsters an opportunity.

2, compassion.

Helping people in trouble is a fine tradition of our country, which deserves our inheritance and development. But it is very dangerous to "help" a stranger or a short acquaintance without thinking. However, it is a pity that many of our college students, with this naive and analytical sympathy and pity, are often deceived by their sweet words when they meet those "victims" who claim to be desperate and in urgent need of help, and then "generously donate", thinking that they have done a good thing, but they don't know that they have fallen into the trap set by the swindlers.

3, VIP, sloppy

Everyone will inevitably ask for help from others, but the key is to understand each other's personality and identity. When some students want to get help from others, they often get impatient and completely relax. For the other party's request, it is often obedient, very "positive and conscious" to meet the other party's request, and then make a big mistake.
