Scammers , why they outsmart smart people?

the “pig butchering scam” is a very sneaky type of fraud that’s become more common online, especially with dating apps and social media. Despite the funny name, it’s serious. Let me break it down carefully:

1. What it is

It’s a type of romance or investment scam.
Scammers “fatten up” the victim — just like raising a pig — before they take everything.
The “butchering” part is when the scammer finally convinces the victim to send large sums of money or invest in fake schemes.

2. How it works

Contact and relationship building:
- The scammer befriends the victim online — often on dating apps, social media, or messaging platforms.
- They build trust over weeks or even months, sending flirty or caring messages.
Introduction to fake opportunities:
- Once trust is gained, the scammer introduces a “lucrative investment” — often crypto, forex, or fake stocks.
- They show fake profits to make it look real.
The big scam (“butchering”):
- Victims are encouraged to invest more money, sometimes hundreds of thousands of dollars.
- When the victim tries to withdraw or question the investment, the scammer disappears.

3. Red flags

Someone online who gets very personal very quickly.
Promises of high returns with little risk.
Pressure to send money fast or “invest before the opportunity disappears.”
Refusal to meet in person or provide verifiable credentials.

4. Why it’s dangerous

Victims can lose life savings.
It’s emotionally manipulative — the scam often combines romance and greed, making people reluctant to report it.

💡 Summary: The “pig butchering scam” is basically a long con — scammers fatten victims emotionally and financially before taking everything.

Question ❓ ⁉️: Oh..so he wish me to respond and he will give link for me to check?

Answer:

Exactly ✅

That’s the classic trick.

First message = short and shocking (“Wow, you’re on Xvid”) to make you panic.
If you respond, they’ll usually send a fake link or edited screenshot.
Then they’ll try to push you further → “Pay me or I’ll send this to your friends.”

So the safest move: ignore, block, and don’t give them any reaction.
They want you to engage, because once you do, they know you’re scared and they’ll keep pressuring.

Question 🤔 ⁉️ : Someone with Mexican hat pm me on Instagram. Said wow. You're on Xvid. And the Instagram let me to accept or not his message. Is that just a bait? Or someone put my video on Xvid?

Answer:

That sounds very much like a bait / scam attempt, not a real situation. Let me explain:

How these scams usually work
- Scammers send a shocking or embarrassing claim (like “I saw you on Xvid” or “your video is leaked”) to scare you.
- If you reply, they may send fake screenshots or links and then demand money (“pay or we will share this with your friends”).
Why it’s unlikely your video is actually there
- If someone really posted your video, they wouldn’t randomly message you from an account with a “Mexican hat” profile picture.
- They would usually send a link or screenshot immediately.
- The wording (“wow you’re on Xvid”) is a copy-paste scam line used to bait people.
What you should do
- Do not reply. Do not click links.
- Do not accept the message — once you accept, they see you’ve read it.
- Block and report the account on Instagram.
- If you’re worried, you can search your own name or check Xvid directly, but in most cases, nothing is there — it’s just fear tactics.

👉 In short: It’s almost certainly a scammer trying to bait you into replying or paying money.

So many people online think 💬 those people are dumb to give away money to scammers.

Someone said : wait until you experience it.

🌺 = that's true. Based on experiences. How scammers play you :

🟤 first you must understand, most of them are random people who you don't know and probably they will use fake pictures , fake videos, and even fake conversations ( they already have the scripts). 🚧 Barrier 1 : block immediately no matter what they say

🟤 They usually will ask you to install app or another media communication. For example you guys meet on Instagram, they will ask WhatsApp.. they need to be exclusive to you.

🟤 They will shower you with beautiful words everyday. This is called as mental manipulation. Daily relationship ( talking) makes habit . Especially if it's more than 25 days. Everyday you communicate with him no matter how smart you are. Your ❤️ heart or feeling will change into trust. That's why you trust your family. Because you grow with them. Communicate with them daily. Barrier 🚧 2 : don't communicate daily or too frequently. Limit your time for that person

🟤 Play role. If you need a lover, they will be your lover. If you need a business partner, they will offer you opportunities. This is what happens to most smart people. " business opportunities". They will expose you into believing about this business or make you at least dare to put your money. They will ask a little then bigger and bigger until you lose or even owe to people. They don't care you live or die . They are just evils who Care about themselves. Barrier 🚧 3 : only give money you are ready to lose. Once you give it, you'll lose it. It works in everything including normal investments.

🟤 the ending usually only 2 ways

1st way : they will suck your money 🤑💰 until you have anything to give. And they will go or you'll feel like ' that person is ghosting me '

2nd way : you are aware and you leave them. And go on with your life 🙂

Barrier 🚧 4 : have self esteem. Love yourself. Remember, people only care about themselves. You should care about yourselves. Be kind to people. But don't let selfish people to take advantage of you. And move on.
