Focus Question
What compels people to deceive others? What are the consequences of deception?
Before we get into this question, take a quick second to define what deceit is because
sometimes people can be blind to it. To deceive is to make somebody or someone you trust
believe something that is not true, to get what you want. There can be multiple things in play

consequences of that is someone might end up getting hurt because they followed something
offline or they might end up getting scammed.
