Scammers don’t steal your money, they create a world where it makes perfect sense to hand your cash over to them. Three-card-monte, the longest running show on Broadway, seems easy. You’re watching the tosser and you always see the queen. What you don’t see is a group of shills working you into the gate where you’ll lose everything you have.Sometimes a large sum of money is accidentally sent to you and the sender asks for the additional cash to be sent back. In the meantime, they empty your bank account.We’ll tell you all about the scams, how they work and why people fall for them. Don’t become a sucker. Listen in.
