This is a question Conned

swiftyisNOTevil writes, "I have recently become obsessed with the BBC Three show 'The Real Hustle' - personally, I think of it as a 'How To' show for aspiring con artists."

Have you carried out a successful con? Perhaps you hustled a few quid off a stranger, or defrauded a multi-national company. Or have you been taken for the wide-eyed, naive rube that you are?

Quite.
I agree with everything that's been said so far.

The stupidest thing you've said though, was about it being a great deal of effortto catch ebay crooks. I've just finished prosecuting a 22 year old who thought he could hide his kiddy porn downloads from the police. He had computer skills that take years of loneliness to develop, apparently. And it took our expert all of thirty seconds to catch him. And you give ebay far more info than he ever gave his paedo mates.

If the aussies are anything like the brits, they've got the skills to nail you for theft in about an hour.

You'd plead guilty, your life would be over job-wise. His girl left him, but I doubt you even have one.
