It’s not a scam in the sense they are deliberately taking your money and not deliver anything in return.

The definition of a scam is essentially a trick or deceiving maneuver that someone uses to take advantage of you, usually for their own personal gain.

So if you gave me $5 for oranges and I gave you orange-painted rocks, it's still a scam.
