Why Evolve , when you Thriving!

plissaman
No reason for the $ scam types to evolve.  They seem to have lotsa suckers in Friam readership.  I was amazed that correspondents even responded seriously.  "Now, about that bridge..."

Re: Why Evolve , when you Thriving!

Nick Thompson

Peter,

 

I don’t know about the rest of you, but I am reborn a fool every day. 

 

What particularly alarmed me about sabarjit’s post was the idea that the mafia has a cut and paste response designed especially for smartasses who think they can turn the tide on the scammer.  I have never tried to be one of those s.a.’s, mostly because I have not had time, but I am the sort of person who might. I have been warned.

 

Nick

Re: Why Evolve , when you Thriving!

Vladimyr Burachynsky

 

To Nick Thompson,

 

Perhaps the attraction is the nature of complex systems, they move a lot of resources from one form to another.

The entire ecology of diseases and parasitism is based on leveraging resources out of complex systems.

Human beings seem to behave as if a civilization is a complex system which is there solely for their own personal exploitation.

That subjective distance from their own societies explains many senseless acts.

 

Evolution is clearly present among the computer scammers, but it is not the idealistic form we expected from Darwin or Dawkins.

In fact as Sarbajit points out the corruption is almost mindless. Amoral and very unromantic,

 

You are not alone, Foolishness has been my problem since stepping into science.
