This is a question Conned

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?

birthday
At primary school, whenever it was your birthday, you could go to the front at assembly and have a sweet or sometimes, some cake, but always get 'happy Birthday' sung to you by the whole school.

I spotted a flaw early on - they relied on you telling the truth when they asked everyone.

One year, i went up twice, got 2 sweets, and sung to twice. Although one of the teachers twigged I think.

To be honest, variations on this event have been a regular occurance for the 30 or so years since this happened.
