Con men and scam artists are a fixture in society. As long as there are people who can be tricked out of their money, someone will be willing to do it. But in today's world, the range and scope of CONS, SCAMS AND SWINDLES is truly astonishing. Mike Wallace guides this sometimes scary, sometimes amazing and occasionally funny look at the weird, wild and woolly world of the unscrupulous souls who prey on others. From a truly astonishing scheme where people intentionally caused car accidents to collect on insurance money to sophisticated credit card rip-offs that sometimes generate millions of dollars for their perpetrators, we'll see how these cons work and find out how their "masterminds" are caught. Chuck Whitlock, an investigative reporter who has written several books on the subject, adds his expert insight and recalls some of the most incredible scams he has come across. For anyone who has ever wondered about the ad that seems too good to be true or the telemarketer with a sensational promise, CONS, SCAMS AND SWINDLES is required viewing.
