T> It is scary how clever scammers are getting these days. It is nearly
T> impossible to stay up with them

Especially due to the fact there is so much information available on people just
a few clicks away.  

When you have information on the person you are trying to scam, that makes it
way easier.  For instance if you know the head of finance in a company that
approves bill payments, you can contact them posing as a different company that
is trying to collect an ourstanding bill that will shut-off some type of
important service.  

The person has a higher chance of falling for it when there is background
knowledge of the individual names, etc.  You can even use names of people in the
originazation you found on Linkedin or something just to make it sound more
real.
