Not to say these people are naturally stupid, but that the nature of man is to believe a lie told confidently. It's literally where the term con art and con artist comes from, the art of tricking people solely through your own personal false confidence and charisma, an act that even the conman has to buy into a little himself to work.
So yeah, welcome to the cyberpunk hellscape, just without any of the cool shit.
