Nonfaithful selfless C*-probability spaces are purely infinite and simple, so every selfless C*-algebra is either purely infinite or stably finite and hence pure.

abstract
It is shown that the reduced C*-algebra of a nontrivial linear group $\Gamma<GL_{d}(k)$ with trivial amenable radical is selfless. Thus selflessness and simplicity coincide for reduced C*-algebras of linear groups. Similar results are obtained for twisted reduced group C*-algebra.

A general family of selfless inclusions is established for reduced amalgamated free products of C*-algebras, with applications to new HNN extensions and selflessness for graph products over suitable graphs.
