A good con artist knows how to convince people by speaking to their emotions. This emotion is most often greed, but can also be one's sexual needs, compassion, love, or religious beliefs. You just have to know which triggers to push, and you can fool anyone at least once. But there are also those scams where the reasons go far beyond greed, gullibility or anything else, where the victim becomes so hooked it can only be described as an addiction. Most of us on /biz/ and other trading communities have seen a few cases of this.
There are people who will continously answer any fraudulent proposal they receive, hoping that one of them just might be for real. Usually these have lost at least some money to a shitcoin at one point, and while they accept that that particular proposal was a scam, they were still convinced by certain parts of the story, and want to recover their money by finding the real one.
There are others who get stuck with a single shitcoin, which is usually far worse. The typical victim in this case has never seen a scam before, and falls for the first shitcoin he is presented with. Perhaps he has doubts about it, but he still buys the first dump. By then he has made a financial and probably emotional investment, and feels he can not simply stop, even if he has doubts when the scammers dump more shitcoins. This can turn into what can only be called an addiction.
