"Scammers often rely on the greed and dishonesty of the mark, who may attempt to out-cheat the con artist, only to discover that he or she has been manipulated into losing from the very beginning. This is such a general principle in confidence tricks that there is a saying among con men that "you can't cheat an honest man." - Scams

This book is about dishonesty - from street level to Cyberworld . It describes the common scams in circulation today and their origins. It shows how each fraud is perpetrated and how the informed reader can avoid or at least minimise their losses when faced with the scenario. If after reading this book you still manage to get scammed, you deserve to be put facing a corner with a dunce cap on your head and whipped with your empty wallet !
