psychologists in the wild 

A phrase that aptly describes the predatory nature of those who use their carefully sharpened ‘street’ understanding of human nature designed to successfully scam people all over the world, using a simple phone or computer.

These folks are essentially psychologists in the wild, having honed their sociopathic skills to suck money in ways that cannot be traced from the bank accounts of vulnerable and trusting individuals who are caught off-guard by the crafted situations they present which produce sudden anxiety and fear and which so often leads to frequent jackpots for them.
