I do think much of it is genre. Scammers go where most of the readers are.
The other thing for me is also that some genres I read are not really represented by self publishers at all. Historical Mystery and Urban Fantasy are some of the other genres I love and I don't really see an SP stuff there. Mind you, I only read full books, not shorts and novellas or serials.
So its publishers or nothing on those. Same with some sub genres of romance. So without the so called "gatekeepers", I wouldn't even have access to some of the stuff I like reading as its not put up by indies.
But that's for a different thread.
