It's an Eternal September of people needing to develop antibodies to scams, one generation at a time.

Unfortunately immunity doesn't get passed down intergenerationally, or at least not enough that a few members of the herd won't be receptive to the infection the next time around. Every time "this time is different" with a sizeable group.
