How are people so "gameable" (gullible)?
Tech support, from a big-name company no less, wanting to get paid in Walmart gift cards? Jesus fucking Christ, how can you believe that.

In other words, the world is new and different to some people. What’s obviously “gaming” to you is not necessarily clear to others.
In my opinion, these are the same type of people that would have given all their livestock to a medieval-traveling pastor because God would have smite them if they didn’t.
You have to be astonishingly ignorant of how the world works to fall for this stuff. What does this say about their ability to participate in an election? They’re eligible to vote, but it seems like even a 12 year old would run circles around them mentally.
The USA elected someone to Presidency who is widely suspected to suffer from mental degeneration.
IMO it's a cultural difference: there are people who constantly engage their minds even at age 70+ and can make young people look pale against them in using computers, and there are people who stopped using their minds in their 40s and it shows.
Its not about ignorance of how world works, their normal world doesn't involve such technology and they never get to the point of being comfortable of new cool tech and don't follow it. Its not ideal, and it doesn't absolve them from their share of blame for the situation, but it is what it is.
I don't think it can be argued that it's reasonable to think the sheriff or the IRS can be paid through iTunes gift cards.
Don't think I'm on a high-horse. Believing that is monumentally stupid.
