It seems like this is an extension of Willie Sutton’s reason for robbing banks. If you have a social media site for marks, then you’re going to get scammers.
It’s even better when you know that the people running the site don’t care.

I’d say the disservice to this headline is they fail to acknowledge that trump scamming people is the most likely explanation for this happening.
I mean I’m not a venture capitalist but I almost want another election cycle to occur so I can go set up booths at his rallies and make 90k a year selling garbage merch with stupid shit he says to morons.

> Many of the app’s users, particularly retired “Boomers” with life savings, fell for “pig butchering” scams in which a grifter persuades an individual to buy into a dubious investment scheme, convincing the victim to make larger contributions by tricking them into thinking they’re making money.

Truth Social has put some of the most gullible people out there on a single platform. Of course it would become a hotbed for scammers.

From the people that brought you: “I’m not muzzling my child!”
Comes the new: “Kid pod! The revolutionary new pod that will protect your child in all circumstances! Make your child invincible, with best-in-class protection from school shootings, natural disasters, nuclear war, even sinkholes! But that’s not all! We’ve exclusively patented trans safe® technology that releases a sleeping gas into the pod in the event of a trans detection, preventing your child from contracting the woke mind virus! But you don’t have to take it from us! Take it from the man himself.
It’s Donald Trump here, your favorite president, number 45. I want you to know this is the greatest safety device ever created. I had Elon Musk test this glass, he put it through everything he could and it didn’t even crack a little. This is the very same glass they use to protect me at my rallies that entertain thousands of beautiful patriots that stay the whole time… I call it the kids pod, that was my idea… If it’s good enough for the president it’s good enough for your families. For the low price of $200,000 it can be yours…Really $200,000? We could probably charge more for this.
NOT MADE FROM ACTUAL GLASS. WE CANNOT GUARANTEE YOUR CHILDS SAFETY IN ANY CIRCUMSTANCE. IT’S NOT OUR FAULT IF YOUR KID DOESN’T WAKE UP FROM THE GAS.
From 45 Technologies: A Trump company.
Don’t forget to pick up our gold plated POTUS edition AR-15, 45% off at checkout! Show those liberals you know how to protect your family!

The grift is not a bug, it is a feature. Why else do you think he is selling bibles? Like he ran for the office in 2016 to set himself as a right wing media personality. Its the still same thing.

I mean being on Truth Social is a strong indicator that you’re a gullible person so I can understand how that might attract scammers

MAGA are obviously easy prey for scammers. Truth Social is invested with MAGA. It’s a no brainer for any scammer as each scammer is a fox in a giant MAGA henhouse.
