      A confidence trick or confidence game (also known as a bunko, con, flim flam, gaffle, grift, hustle, scam, scheme, swindle or bamboozle) is an attempt to defraud a person or group by gaining their confidence. The victim is known as the mark, the trickster is called a confidence man, con man, confidence trickster, grifter, or con artist, and any accomplices are known as plants. Confidence men or women exploit characteristics of the human psyche such as greed, both dishonesty and honesty, vanity, compassion, credulity, irresponsibility, naïveté, and the thought of trying to get something of value for nothing or for something far less valuable. Confidence men or women have victimized individuals from all walks of life.

The Scam Killer's Profile Photo

The Scam Killer from Ghana flag wrote 1 comment

Hello Everyone,

I was one of the first scam killers in Ghana. About 4 to 3 years ago, i really helped a lot of people identify scams. I just came back to this site and i realize a lot of scammers have posted comments promising victims of money recovery. everyone should take it from me, there is no such thing. Once a scammer gets your money, it is gone. closest you will get will be seeing the scammer who took it. Anyone who claims he works for the Ghana Police here, is a big liar. The person might be a cop but he is in no way linked to the internet crime department. Please people, don't be scammed twice. I wont promise you recovery but if you haven't yet been scammed, please send me a mail with a picture of the suspected scammer and i will tell you if it is legit. You can choose to believe me or not. I am just helping...
