Today’s new era of con artists aren’t the hardened, film noir criminals of the past; they’re slick, manipulative social media scammers, or glamorous-looking hustlers determined to fake it until they make it. They seek power through first creating an image or idea around themselves. Con artistry is about gaming the system to accrue influence and status, and then leveraging that into concrete gains. Here’s our take on the modern con artist, and whether today’s scams and hustles are just becoming something we’re all expected to take part in.
