This Tim Ferris/Kevin Rose video on G's link describes it well. In case you don't want to bother watching it, although I do recommend it, it brings up a philosophy that exists, I suppose, in China where if you can trick someone, it's game. From what I get out of it, it basically means if you're dumb enough to fall for it, then you deserve to be scammed. At least that's what it seems like after listening to Tim Ferris.
The video is great because I know so many guys who would fall for it just like Kevin Rose, and in so many situations I feel like I'm in Tim Ferris' shoes where I'm just wondering how my friends can fall for this kind of shit. Check out the video, it's worth it.
