The Spiritual Roots of a Scammer
1. Belief in Lack
They believe they are missing something: money, safety, power, control. Rather than trusting in Source (God, Love), they try to take what they think they lack. They are trying to fill an internal emptiness with external gain.
2. Identification with the Ego
To scam is to believe:
>"I am a separate self."
>"I must compete or manipulate to survive."
>"Others are threats or tools, not equals."
This is the egoic identity, which thrives on separation and control. The scammer sees the other not as a brother or sister, but as prey.
3. Projection of Guilt
Deep down, the scammer feels guilt and shame (often unconscious). Instead of healing it, they project it outward:
>“If I fool others, maybe I won’t feel so powerless.”
But guilt unhealed becomes a cycle:
>Lie -> Steal -> Fear exposure -> Defend -> Lie more
This leads to spiritual imprisonment—not punishment, but the inability to feel peace.
4. Call for Love (Misunderstood)
Every act of deception is a distorted cry:
>“I don’t believe I am lovable as I am. I must take to survive.”
From a spiritual view, every attack is a call for love, and every scammer is someone who believes they are unworthy of receiving it.
5. Karmic Echoes
In traditions like Vedanta or Buddhism, this kind of act generates karma, not as cosmic punishment, but as the natural return of energy.
When you take dishonestly, life returns mirrors to show you the illusion of gain and the truth of loss, until you wake up.
What Heals It?
Forgiveness: Not condoning, but seeing the innocence behind the mask.
Awareness: The scammer needs to awaken to their own worth, beyond money or control.
Reconnection: To Spirit, to truth, to wholeness.
Until then, their actions will reinforce their illusion that they are separate, unsafe, and unloved.
The scammer is just a projection outside of what you have inside and don't want to see in yourself.
