Scammers getting worse

More awareness
 
I don't think the scammers are any worse now than in biblical times.
The only thing that changed is the label we put on them... Snake oil Salesman, Flim Flam Man, etc...
The change I see is the increased gullibility of the American people and the expectation that the government will protect them.
As in ancient times... Hard to beat "Face to Face" commerce and dealing in cash, gold or silver.

Or a suckling pig for three bushels of prime wheat.
