That would only apply if every single person who claimed they were a victim, was in fact a victim. I'm speculating that is not the case, because there are strong financial incentives to lie.
This is precisely what people say right before they start victim blaming.
Maybe too subtle, but I'm saying there are some scammers who call themselves victims, to try to cover up their own scam. I don't see how "victim blaming" could apply in this case.
