Book- The Book of Scams

These days fraudsters operate on a massive scale that was

previously unimaginable.

Thousands of people from all walks of life are relieved of billions of pounds each year.

No-one knows the full scale of fraud because embarrassed victims often fail to report it.

Despite all the press coverage, people keep falling for old tricks that often re-emerge in new guises.

Rodney Hobson, author of the best-selling beginners guide to stock market investing Shares Made Simple, has produced the first definitive guide to scams, categorizing the different types, listing tell-tale signs and advising how to spot a fraudster and avoid becoming the

next victim.

This makes the basic principles behind each type of scam more recognizable and it shows how scams have evolved and

re-emerged over time.

Danger lurks for those unwary souls who part only too readily with their hard-earned cash and this book will help you be alert to the risks.

It is also meant to entertain, as we learn to grudgingly admire as well as despise the ingenious crooks who lurk in the shadows.
