It seems p99ers have a slightly suspicious nature to their characters.

I just consider it realistic. The fact of the matter is that many network gamers in which spend their time playing difficult/classic mmo's (e.g eq, uo, eve, ao etc.) are often more technically literate than the general population at large of which walk into street lights zombified by their smarter-than-you phones. In some such game communities, IT in general is the most common profession among the gamers.
And I don't say zombie lightly, people have become gullible, trusting of everything. Some outright app scams reach into the millions of downloads before Google finally pulls the app as a scam and refunds customers over initial purchases. And as well many free apps are just out there to get everything it can on you and sell it for a price, and the users agree to it unwittingly. Apps like john mcafee's dcentral 1 for android can help, but ultimately it's up to the user to protect themselves through research and awareness.
