Once the "inside man" has the attention of the mark, the next step is to get the mark to determine how much money he will invest.
All the parties to this con game want the mark to invest as much money as possible. After all, the entire purpose of a con game is to entice the mark to give all his money to the con artists. No matter how much money is invested, however, it is all going to enrich the con artists, not the investor.
One of the more common ploys to get the mark to invest the most money is the simple enticing question: "how much money do you want to earn? The more you invest, the more you can earn." It is a basic come-on scheme.
If the mark is convinced that he will make a lot of money from a little investment, then of course the normal mark will only invest a little at first. After all, the mark has to make certain that the investment really will make a return.
