Hi there.
Ever wonder how otherwise intelligent people can fall for scams and cons? Then you might want to read “The Confidence Game, Why We Fall for It…Every Time,” by Maria Konnikova. It’s a fascinating look at the tricks that fraudsters use to convince victims that they’re legit. You can read more about it at www.mariakonnikova.com.
I’m working on a short story in the Ruby Danger series, titled “Danger and the Sting,” that I hope to have out in a month or two. Konnikova’s book was a timely reminder for me that anyone can fall prey to a con artist.
