Scammers may cease contacting victims for various reasons, although it’s not certain. Some scammers abandon their attempts when they realize a victim is unresponsive or suspicious. Others persist, either hoping for a response or trying to wear down the victim’s defenses over time.Factors influencing scammers to stop contacting victims include loss of interest if they perceive the victim as unyielding, fear of exposure due to increased awareness or legal consequences, or the risk of law enforcement action.However, victims should remain vigilant, as scammers may return with new strategies or sell victim information to other fraudsters.
