Narrative evidence

What happened

I received a phone call from Golden Harvest promising money, but saying I had to pay the taxes. I have been scammed before. I googled it and found out it was a hoax. My boyfriend was scammed the other day and I lost $1500 on a Microsoft scam. How do these people continue to attempt to scam people??? Thank you.
