Why do people choose fraud as their way to make a living?

[cool1]

one would guess fraud is easier for them to do, than honest work.
and one could also guess the rewards seem greater to them.

Fraud as a living, Mike?

You mean like suggesting webmasters go to user forums, STEAL the content they see on the forums, and then use it to promote sponsors?

What kind of moron would do something like that to make money and then advise people to do the same thing?

I was just about to write that didn't he write here recently that he is going to start scamming traffic out from toplists and asked everyone to gang up and do it together with him and be really honest about it.

OH yeah, I forgot a post "someone" made about cheating toplists by giving out Netpond points to webmasters as an incentive to click and cheat!

It was a discussion thread i wrote and after getting advice on the pond I decided not to do it. I don't think I ever said anything about giving anybody netpond points.

So lets make this thread more simple for you. Why do people discuss fraud as a way to make a living?
