The Scammer

Deception in the form of lies

Untruths unknown to no bound

Deciet that becomes concrete

A snare meant to trap its prey

Unknowingly, unsuspected  get caught

The wise and cunning

Will see thru what is presented

In the web some will get caught

Others will not

If it is a scam you find

Scanners like to play with your mind
