Reaction from irrational and angry sellers when they see profit being made

I just saw an online video about the unspoken, and ugly side to wholesaling. It goes into the unstable and emotional state of mind that many sellers are in, when they decide to work with a wholesaler. According to the video, many become extremely angry when they find out that a wholesaler will be making a very nice profit. Some can potentially become violent. Has anyone had any such experience with a seller? I was just curious to know how common that is, and advice on avoiding such conflicts.

I would imagine a wholesaler in that situation has likely not been completely up front about what they do if a seller gets angry with them making a profit.
