Dear brother Abjad,
Try to understand this thing, this is the verse of the glorious Qur'an that you posted and to understand it we have to read it from the beginning or from to and fro so read it by urself who are they as below.
Do the unbelievers think that they can take my servants as protectors, to save themselves from Hell, instead of Me? Certainly We have prepared Hell for the entertainment of such unbelievers.[102] O Muhammad tell them: "Should we tell you the worst kind of losers relating to their deeds?[103] Those whose all efforts in this worldly life had gone astray from the Right Way, but all along they were under the delusion that they were doing good deeds;[104] they are the ones who are disregarding the revelations of their Lord and the fact that they will meet Him for accountability of their deeds in the Hereafter, so their deeds will become null and will not carry any weight on the Day of Judgment.[105] Thus the reward of such people will be Hell; because they had no faith and because they took My revelations and My Messengers as a joke.[106]
[Surah Al-Kahf]
Would appreciate if you could read and do your own research before asking... no offense brother, its just a suggestion for you.
May ALLAH increase our Knowledge of Deen.... Ameen Ya Rabb Al-Arshil Qareem

Tafsir Ibn Kathir
18:103 Say: "Shall We tell you the greatest losers in respect of (their) deeds!''
18:104 "Those whose efforts have been wasted in this life while they thought that they were acquiring good by their deeds.''
18:105 "They are those who deny the Ayat of their Lord and the meeting with Him. So their works are in vain, and on the Day of Resurrection, We shall assign no weight for them.''
18:106 "That shall be their recompense, Hell; because they disbelieved and took My Ayat and My Messengers for jest.''
The Greatest Losers in respect of (Their) Deeds
Al-Bukhari recorded from Amr that Mus`ab who said:
"I asked my father -- meaning Sa`d bin Abi Waqqas -- about Allah's saying,
Say: "Shall We tell you the greatest losers in respect of (their) deeds!''
`Are they the Haruriyyah?'
He said, `No, they are the Jews and Christians.
As for the Jews, they disbelieved in Muhammad, and
as for the Christians, they disbelieved in Paradise and said that there is no food or drink there, and
the Haruriyyah are those who break Allah's covenant after ratifying it.'
Sa`d used to call them Al-Fasiqin (the corrupt).
Ali bin Abi Talib, Ad-Dahhak and others said:
"They are the Haruriyyah,''
so this means, that according to Ali, may Allah be pleased with him, this Ayah includes the Haruriyyah just as it includes the Jews, the Christians and others.
This does not mean that the Ayah was revealed concerning any of these groups in particular; it is more general than that, because the Ayah was revealed in Makkah, before the Qur'an addressed the Jews and Christians, and before the Khawarij existed at all.
So the Ayah is general and refers to everyone who worships Allah in a way that is not acceptable, thinking that he is right in doing that and that his deeds will be accepted, but he is mistaken and his deeds will be rejected, as Allah says:
Some faces, that Day will be humiliated. Laboring, weary. They will enter in the hot blazing Fire. (88:2-4)
And We shall turn to whatever deeds they did, and We shall make such deeds as scattered floating particles of dust. (25:23)
And in this Ayah Allah says:
Say: "Shall We tell you...''
meaning, `Shall We inform you;'
the greatest losers in respect of (their) deeds.
Then Allah explains who they are, and says:
Those whose efforts have been wasted in this life,
meaning, they did deeds that do not count, deeds that are not in accordance with the prescribed way that is acceptable to Allah.
while they thought that they were acquiring good by their deeds.
means, they thought that there was some basis for their deeds and that they were accepted and loved.
They are those who deny the Ayat of their Lord and the meeting with Him.
they denied the signs of Allah in this world, the proofs that He has established of His Oneness and of the truth of His Messengers, and they denied the Hereafter.
So their works are in vain,
and on the Day of Resurrection, We shall assign no weight for them.
means, `We will not make their Balance heavy because it is empty of any goodness.'
Al-Bukhari recorded that Abu Hurayrah said that the Messenger of Allah said:
A huge fat man will come forward on the Day of Resurrection and he will weigh no more than the wing of a gnat to Allah. Recite, if you wish:
and on the Day of Resurrection, We shall assign no weight for them.
It was also recorded by Muslim.
That shall be their recompense, Hell; because they disbelieved,
means, `We will punish them with that because of their disbelief and because they took the signs and Messengers of Allah as a joke, mocking them and disbelieving them in the worst way.'
and took My Ayat and My Messengers for jest.''
قُلْ هَلْ نُنَبِّئُكُم بِالاٌّخْسَرِينَ أَعْمَـلاً
18:103 Say: "Shall We tell you the greatest losers in respect of (their) deeds!''
الَّذِينَ ضَلَّ سَعْيُهُمْ فِى الْحَيَوةِ الدُّنْيَا وَهُمْ يَحْسَبُونَ أَنَّهُمْ يُحْسِنُونَ صُنْعًا
18:104 "Those whose efforts have been wasted in this life while they thought that they were acquiring good by their deeds.''
أُوْلَـئِكَ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُواْ بِـَايَـتِ رَبِّهِمْ وَلِقَائِهِ فَحَبِطَتْ أَعْمَالُهُمْ فَلاَ نُقِيمُ لَهُمْ يَوْمَ الْقِيَـمَةِ وَزْناً
18:105 "They are those who deny the Ayat of their Lord and the meeting with Him. So their works are in vain, and on the Day of Resurrection, We shall assign no weight for them.''
ذَلِكَ جَزَآؤُهُمْ جَهَنَّمُ بِمَا كَفَرُواْ وَاتَّخَذُواْ ءَايَـتِى وَرُسُلِى هُزُواً
18:106 "That shall be their recompense, Hell; because they disbelieved and took My Ayat and My Messengers for jest.''
The Greatest Losers in respect of (Their) Deeds
Al-Bukhari recorded from Amr that Mus`ab who said:
"I asked my father -- meaning Sa`d bin Abi Waqqas -- about Allah's saying,
قُلْ هَلْ نُنَبِّئُكُمْ بِالْأَخْسَرِينَ أَعْمَالًا ﴿١٠٣﴾
Say: "Shall We tell you the greatest losers in respect of (their) deeds!''
`Are they the Haruriyyah?'
He said, `No, they are the Jews and Christians.
As for the Jews, they disbelieved in Muhammad, and
as for the Christians, they disbelieved in Paradise and said that there is no food or drink there, and
the Haruriyyah are those who break Allah's covenant after ratifying it.'
Sa`d used to call them Al-Fasiqin (the corrupt).
Ali bin Abi Talib, Ad-Dahhak and others said:
"They are the Haruriyyah,''
so this means, that according to Ali, may Allah be pleased with him, this Ayah includes the Haruriyyah just as it includes the Jews, the Christians and others.
This does not mean that the Ayah was revealed concerning any of these groups in particular; it is more general than that, because the Ayah was revealed in Makkah, before the Qur'an addressed the Jews and Christians, and before the Khawarij existed at all.
So the Ayah is general and refers to everyone who worships Allah in a way that is not acceptable, thinking that he is right in doing that and that his deeds will be accepted, but he is mistaken and his deeds will be rejected, as Allah says:
وُجُوهٌ يَوْمَئِذٍ خَـشِعَةٌ
عَامِلَةٌ نَّاصِبَةٌ
تَصْلَى نَاراً حَامِيَةً
عَامِلَةٌ نَّاصِبَةٌ
تَصْلَى نَاراً حَامِيَةً
Some faces, that Day will be humiliated. Laboring, weary. They will enter in the hot blazing Fire. (88:2-4)
وَقَدِمْنَآ إِلَى مَا عَمِلُواْ مِنْ عَمَلٍ فَجَعَلْنَاهُ هَبَآءً مَّنثُوراً
And We shall turn to whatever deeds they did, and We shall make such deeds as scattered floating particles of dust. (25:23)
وَالَّذِينَ كَفَرُواْ أَعْمَـلُهُمْ كَسَرَابٍ بِقِيعَةٍ يَحْسَبُهُ الظَّمْآنُ مَآءً حَتَّى إِذَا جَآءَهُ لَمْ يَجِدْهُ شَيْئاً
As for those who disbelieved, their deeds are like a mirage in a desert. The thirsty one thinks it to be water, until he comes up to it, he finds it to be nothing. (24:39) And in this Ayah Allah says:
قُلْ هَلْ نُنَبِّئُكُمْ ...
Say: "Shall We tell you...''
meaning, `Shall We inform you;'
... بِالْأَخْسَرِينَ أَعْمَالًا ﴿١٠٣﴾
the greatest losers in respect of (their) deeds.
Then Allah explains who they are, and says:
الَّذِينَ ضَلَّ سَعْيُهُمْ فِي الْحَيَاةِ الدُّنْيَا ...
Those whose efforts have been wasted in this life,
meaning, they did deeds that do not count, deeds that are not in accordance with the prescribed way that is acceptable to Allah.
... وَهُمْ يَحْسَبُونَ أَنَّهُمْ يُحْسِنُونَ صُنْعًا ﴿١٠٤﴾
while they thought that they were acquiring good by their deeds.
means, they thought that there was some basis for their deeds and that they were accepted and loved.
أُولَئِكَ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا بِآيَاتِ رَبِّهِمْ وَلِقَائِهِ ...
They are those who deny the Ayat of their Lord and the meeting with Him.
they denied the signs of Allah in this world, the proofs that He has established of His Oneness and of the truth of His Messengers, and they denied the Hereafter.
... فَحَبِطَتْ أَعْمَالُهُمْ ...
So their works are in vain,
... فَلَا نُقِيمُ لَهُمْ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ وَزْنًا ﴿١٠٥﴾
and on the Day of Resurrection, We shall assign no weight for them.
means, `We will not make their Balance heavy because it is empty of any goodness.'
Al-Bukhari recorded that Abu Hurayrah said that the Messenger of Allah said:
إِنَّهُ لَيَأْتِي الرَّجُلُ الْعَظِيمُ السَّمِينُ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ لَا يَزِنُ عِنْدَ اللهِ جَنَاحَ بَعُوضَةٍ وَقَالَ: اقْرَءُوا إِنْ شِئْتُمْ:
فَلَا نُقِيمُ لَهُمْ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ وَزْنًا
فَلَا نُقِيمُ لَهُمْ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ وَزْنًا
A huge fat man will come forward on the Day of Resurrection and he will weigh no more than the wing of a gnat to Allah. Recite, if you wish:
and on the Day of Resurrection, We shall assign no weight for them.
It was also recorded by Muslim.
ذَلِكَ جَزَاؤُهُمْ جَهَنَّمُ بِمَا كَفَرُوا ...
That shall be their recompense, Hell; because they disbelieved,
means, `We will punish them with that because of their disbelief and because they took the signs and Messengers of Allah as a joke, mocking them and disbelieving them in the worst way.'
... وَاتَّخَذُوا آيَاتِي وَرُسُلِي هُزُوًا ﴿١٠٦﴾
and took My Ayat and My Messengers for jest.''
