Great, now all they need to do is explain how the Bush administration is scamming us.

Usually it`s at least 5 posts before it turns into something about Bush.

I really enjoy this show, but it`s just entertainment rather than informative. Some of these cons are way too elaborate. The trick to a con is "keep it simple stupid." You also need to make a clean getaway before the mark knows they`ve been conned. Some are even implausible because of the money necessary to get the con set up in the first place. If I had the money to get all that stuff togethjer, then I am doing well enough not to con people for my income.

lol this is retarded. once the guy notices the check has been cashed he`s going to notify the bank. since banks need your signature, an account with them, id, and/or fingerprints most of the time to do so your going to be found out. whether or not the bank or police could do anything about it this the guy is going to know who cashed the check when he gets his statement. I for one don`t see much profit from the risks of this considering you need a whole street vendor set-up to do this for a day until people come back to kick your ass for setting them up. All in all though if you want real advice for selling fake stuff get an account with ebay...it`s free to have an account and you do not have to have a vendors license a vending cart or even have to be put on the spot on what your going to say. Besides, he would have made a measly 30 if he paid in just cash and thats like pocket change for the work this took.
