A simple Google search would do: "Nigerian prince’ email scams still rake in over $700,000 a year" https://www.cnbc.com/2019/04/18/nigerian-prince-scams-still-...

$700k a year as an excuse to lock down over a billion smartphones? Not to mention that once again, this is an email scam, and thus vendor lockdown is irrelevant and doesn't prevent it.

It appears that you're the one believing whatever you want to believe, despite the empirical facts. The problem is that proponents of vendor lockdown always make gross exaggerations to defend it, pure fearmongering.
