How can NFT scammers be so fucking dumb but still manage to rug pull??

I've just read an article about two dumbfucks that rug pulled a project woth about 1.1 mil. The way they were caught is as follows:

• they withdrew all the funds to multiple wallets

• transfered all the crypto to Coinbase

• the coinbase account was linked to a real world banking account made with the same id as the Coinbase account

I really do not understand, how can one have enough knowledge to create an entire project, hype it up, rug pull and not use a service like tornado cash or something similar???? It just doesn't make any sense at all.

I am in no way trying to side with the scammers, but it just hurts my brain thinking that they went through all this to sell 8888 nfts but did not even consider trying to launder the money in any way. How is this even possible? To me it just shows the level of stupidity this scammers have, but then again, how the fuck do they manage to pull the scam off if they are this blatantly stupid?
