In 2023, a Citigroup survey revealed that 90% of respondents believed they could identify financial scams; however, 27% admitted to being scammed. This disconnect is exploited by scammers, exemplified by parking lot steak scams, where vendors sell poor quality steaks at attractive prices. The process involves creating an enticing offer, leading potential customers into a tent where they face upselling tactics for larger boxes of questionable quality meat. Customers are often left dissatisfied due to the low standards of the meat they purchase.
Scammers exploit overconfidence, preying on individuals who believe they can easily spot scams while the reality shows many still fall victim to them.
The parking lot steak scam draws people in with enticing offers, selling poor quality meats after creating an illusion of quality through marketing tactics.
