Do you want to…Help distribute money to the poor and be given a fee to do so? Share in Al Qaeda’s hidden gold? Help a young girl orphaned in the tsunami?;;

Here are highly talented men and women and their tricks- changing paper into banknotes, selling other people’s property, faking deaths, and forging paintings; promising miracle cures and impersonating aristocracy, preachers, military gents, lawyers and doctors. In fact, whatever it takes to separate the unwary from their money. Read about the scams and think twice about that offer that seems almost too good to be true.
