Can you write about a scam, a scammer, or a scam victim?

It can be any kind of scam. It could be a romance scam, a high return scam, a sex scam, a front-end-fee scam, an inheritance scam, a marriage scam, a tourist scam, or anything which involves scamming individuals by lies, trickery or deceit..

Have been scammed as a tourist? Tell us about it.

Do you know a scammer? How does he operate? Is he on his own or part of a larger organisation?

Did you see a friend get scammed? Why did they fall for it?

Did you ever scam a scammer? How did you get your revenge?

You can write about yourself or about someone else, of about scammers in general.

Every country has its scams and scammers. Write about the scams in your country. How does your country scam tourists?

I am looking for scams involving lying, trickery or deceit.

Rules:

No fiction. (No made-up stories. It must be true and factual.)
You can write anything you like about scamming, for example:

• You can write about scammers and how they operate.
• You can write about yourself.
• You can write about someone you know.
• You can write about the most common scams in your country
• Only write about scams against individuals, not society. In other words, don't write about the great fiat currency scam or about the government raising your taxes.
  No plagiarism, no copying from the internet. Original ideas only.
  No stories about being ripped off by shoddy goods or paying too high a price.
  No Bitconnect sob-stories - unless you are Mr Bitconnect himself.

It's about how I was scammed 45 years ago in London with the "Find the lady" trick.
