How to be a conman

Have you ever wondered how famous conmen have been able to tell so many lies and get away with it? And have wondered how some of the greatest conman pulled off their elaborate schemes – sometimes even for decades.

Conmen seem to have a strange allure and repulsiveness at the same time. Repulsiveness because of the victims they hurt, but allure because of either the cunningness or audacity of their scams and fraud.

While there are technical aspects to cons – especially the modern conman, perhaps more important are the psychological aspects of running a con.

Lynn Edgington of Eagle Research Associates just published a terrific piece called How Conmen Cover Themselves With Spin To Get Away With It.

The article is a great read for anyone who wants to have a non-technical set of red-flags to look for when evaluating if something is a possible scam.
