War creates opportunities for scams, with governments, corporations, and individuals exploiting chaos for profit. Defense contractors inflate prices, fake charities steal donations, and black markets thrive, selling overpriced essentials. Media manipulation misleads the public, while war bond scams, bribery, and embezzlement flourish in the absence of accountability. Ordinary citizens suffer through higher taxes, inflation, or donations that never reach their intended cause, making war not only a human tragedy but also a lucrative business for the unscrupulous.
