Why do freelancers allow themselves to become victims of scams and frauds?

There is no freelancer that will be happy to be a victim of scam. Unfortunately, there are many people out there that are ready to take advantage of the new freelancers' folly or naivety to dupe them. Majority of them fall because they are new and not really know how these work. Some are too eager to make money not knowing that they are falling already. What do you still think make new freelancers to be victims of scam on freelancing.
