We'd like to suggest that Gullibilty has something to do with 'taking things for granted, for not checking stuff out.
Jostein Gaarder in the brilliant novel Sophies World observes:
"..long before the child learns to talk properly-and long before it learns to think philosophically- the world will have become a habit"
Perhaps a first step to avoiding Gullibilty is stop thinking 'habitually' and begin to re-ignite the curious and questioning child within.
