Characteristics of a Swindler

There are two types of people: one kind only talks about methods, ignoring context.

They offer a one-size-fits-all playbook—artillery bombards, then infantry charges—regardless of the game scenario, mode, or stage. How does the other type approach it?

First, they explain the game’s background: what game we’re talking about, what stage we’re at, what difficulty level it presents for you, and only then do they discuss methodology. Moreover, they don’t just present conclusions—they walk you through how those conclusions were derived.

Which is easier? Obviously the first type—but that’s a scam. Any method has a shelf life: within it, it’s a cure; beyond it, it’s poison. Offering methods without referencing the game stage makes you a charlatan.

Scammers chase quick, easy wins. Why would they care about your situation years from now? Why would they explain something complex—presenting conclusions with reasoning, methods with context—when you’d barely listen past the first few sentences before walking away? A scammer would be crying in the bathroom over that. They need it simple and direct: you hear it, believe it, pay them a few thousand dollars upfront.
