By 
A. Bates (Fairbanks, AK United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: The Complete Idiot's Guide To Frauds, Scams, and Cons (Paperback)
My review is "AWESOME", "AMAZING", "Pulse-pounding", and "A Life Altering Experience!".

For only 19.95, I'll be happy to send the review along to you.

Sorry, cash only accepted, although if you email me your bank account information, social security number, and PIN numbers, I will kindly and conveniently withdraw the money on your behalf. Honest!

5.0 out of 5 stars Scam-a-rific!, January 30, 2003
By A Customer
This review is from: The Complete Idiot's Guide To Frauds, Scams, and Cons (Paperback)
There are plenty of books about con artists out there, but i don't think any of them are as funny as this one. Put this one on the shelf next to your true crime favorites.
