        noun - a fraudulent or deceptive act or operation

        If you design a game with psychologists to maximize serotonin hits instead of gameplay and then charge money to keep getting a hit is, by definition, a deceptive act, and ergo – scam.

          Using that line of reasoning, any form of advertising can be considered a scam as well.

          There is no real deception involved here, it’s pretty clear what people are paying for.

              Yeah, advertising sucks, but you can’t just change the definition of a scam to fit your purposes.
