Con Games IV

What if the Embarrassing Check routine actually happened?   What if it occurred at least once?

    Well - why is it a con?  We already know the answer to this - because it is a game using deceit with the intent to take money from a victim.  The idea is to get the mark to pay for something from a porno shop.  Through this purchase, the mark is fooled into thinking that something will be send to him, something that he does not want other people to know he is receiving.

     However, the intent of the seller is never to send the item to him.  The intent is to take the money, whether cash, check or credit card or wire transfer, make certain that the money is in his account, and then tell the mark that the product is not available.  The money will be sent in the form of a check back to the mark BUT the mark is told ahead of time.  Further, the check that arrives will clearly have the imprint and name of the business on it.

    The entire con, therefore, is motivated by deceit from start to finish.  The intent is to deceive the mark, with no other purpose.
