What are the different traits noticable in con-artists?
Grifters, con-artists and swindlers seem to be hard to notice. Usually their character traits present a false front, such as representing themselves as someone they’re not … Maybe falsifying documents to represent themselves as a financial or insurance person, etc. They get to know you for you to feel comfortable with them. Maybe there are some discernable personality traits to help send up a ‘red flag.’

a con can spot a gullible person … but not the other way around
best advise, wise up and self educate
as long as you’ve got money in your pocket there is always someone out to get it.

here’s a huge red flag - if what they are telling you ( the scam ) is so good, why do they need you ? what are you giving them that they don’t have but want ?

and the other huge one - ask yourself " am i letting anything cloud my judgment ? "

another huge red flag is " a limited time offer" if they need an answer now - pass it up !
