It's very sad to hear about people losing their money in this way. I think there is a big difference between academic intelligence and emotional intelligence. Some people are bereaved and feel lost and alone despite having a good job or loving family. I used to feel that such victims should have none better but after listening to a couple of their stories I can quite understand how they got caught up with very plausible scammers.
