- W4245012267 abstract "Scammers are specialists of an endemic form of cybercrime focused on Internet scams. This chapter argues that understanding scamming requires an investigation involving scammers. The interactionist approach is better adapted to the criminal and secret nature of scamming. It views professions as a generic form of occupation and identity in the work environment. The chapter adopts the anthropology of communication approach. It uses data from an ethnographic survey conducted at Cybercafé Pro, an Internet café in Abobo in Abidjan. The chapter discusses the phases, success models and rewards of the scamming career. Scammers are part of a process of idealizing what they do and who they are. They identify themselves with the same group that they value and idealize. Analysis of the scammers’ reactions to the social reaction reveals that they are isolating themselves. Scamming is seen by those who scam as a job, a means of subsistence." @default.
