Have you carried out a successful con? Perhaps you hustled a few quid off a stranger, or defrauded a multi-national company. Or have you been taken for the wide-eyed, naive rube that you are?

Napoli scumbagsMy new bride and I where walking through Napoli, when a local stopped me and showed me a rather fine Sony Cybershot camera. He gave me the spiel about working in the docks, and wanted to offload said Japanese goods. 180 euros and it was mine...
Greedily I took him up on the offer. He packaged the camera and all the doings into a little bag, and produced a poly bag to wrap it in.
I parted with cash and we went to a local restaurant to check out the purchase. Imagine our surprise when we found we had spent all that brass on a kilo of salt. How he did the switch I do not know....
We were sick to our stomach and vowed that we would never tell of our foolishness.
We had the last laugh though... the following day, our son bust his lip and she used the salt to get blood stain out of a 7 pound tshirt!
