Well, I didn’t really see..anything at all on being a Con Artist and I always thought it was a little interesting so why not. I did not copy and paste this I’m just writing thise purely from what I’ve learned from people, other sites, books, or whatever.
So basically being a Con Artist is bringing out everyones inner most wants. Bringing out peoples Greed. You want to trick someone into giving you items or money thinking theyll get better things in return, well, in most cases.
A few very simple cons that I’ve seen or just thought of are of course the pool con. Go to your local pool table or bar or whatever. Hang out find some people that are willing to bet money. Start off very small for your first few cons. You have to be pretty good at ball too. Just act like you suck. Terribly. then ask for one final match, bring out your pool skills and get all your money and more back and there you go.
Another con would be..Well, I read this one off Wikipedia awhile ago. A man with one eye (Now a days you could probably use anything, like a neckalce) walks into a store and claims he lost his glass eye (or whatever item) in the store. After everyone looking (but of course not finding it because it’s not there) The one eyed man (Or..necklace-ness man..) says he will pay 1000$ to whoever finds the neckalce because it means alot. The next day or a few hours later your accomplice walks in and finds the necklace while buying..whatever. Now this will bring out the shop owners Greed. Knowing that he will get 1000$ for the necklace, He’ll offer your accomplance some money for it..like 300-500$. Because he thinks hell make more in the end. So you and your buddy just made 300-500$ and the shop owner will keep trying to call that "fake information" you left him when you lost your..eye..or necklace.
Also this is one I think would work very good. You walk around with a pair of broken glasses, keep the glass shards in your hand, too. You bump into someone and your glasses drop, and they broke. (tee hee.) That’s when your like .."NOO! oh god no. We’ll never have enough to pay for a new pair, I’m so fucking dead no no NO!" And then they’ll be like OH MY GOD I am SO SORRY here’s like you know..100 bucks.
Shizzam. I Forget where I read that one.
Also I just thought of this one today when my buddys were racing. You be like hey lets race on your fucking bikes or motorcycles or ninjas or pony or skittles or boogers and limesblahblahblah. So your like hold on let me ride around for a bit get in the zone. Theyre like whatev. Then you go slow, but not too slow. Ride around like thats as fast as you go. Then you come back like lets bet money you know like whatever I’ll bet my soul and shit. Bam you fuckin blast there shit away and there you go. Souls and moneys or whatever you desire.
That’s some pretty basic stuff. Just sit around and think of Cons and look for people and just don’t be lousy with it.

May 21, 2007 11:35 pm - The first one will probably have a few people wanting to kick your ass for hustlin’ them. You gotta have some good fighters to back you up if you wanna try that one.

I& squo;ve never even heard of "The Real Hustle"
And i’m not trying to make it as a "Scam Artist"
And I’m not going to stop trying new things because it gives your internet fame a bad name.

I do this for a living and let me tell you that, pool hustling is a great way to start.
Your second one has been around the block a couple times. I’ve seen it done with violins, dogs and wedding rings. Its still very effective when done right. The broken glasses con, I can personally tell you never works.
The mark always claims you should have been more careful and refuses to pay. They assume you have a second pair and insurance to cover the broken ones.
Extremely basic, if you are truly interested in grifting send me a message
