The Book Of Cheating

The Book Of Cheating - Interestingly, the book became popular when the Bonnie & Clyde of ID fraud were arrested in Philadelphia last Friday and a copy of
“The Art of Cheating: A Nasty Little Book for Tricky Little Schemers and Their Hapless Victims” was found in their ritzy apartment.

Police found the book The Art of Cheating: A Nasty Little Book for Tricky Little Schemers and Their Hapless Victims (Paperback) (2007, from Basic Books) by Jessica Dorfman Jones, in the Bonnie & Clyde duo’s fancy condo.

The book of cheating itself, if you look it up on Amazon, is more about telling practical white lies and not about becoming a master criminal.

Here’s an excerpt from the book of cheating:

Even though you’re cheating a little bit every day, chances are you could be doing it better. Why settle for a minor promotion when you could have the corner office? Why bother taking the loose change out of your friend’s couch when you could be making the big bucks forging checks? If your answer is that you just don’t know how, look no further. This is the book for you.In the pages of this little tome, you’ll find a guide to grifting, a sourcebook of sophistry, and a bible of bunco. Everything the modern mountebank needs to know to pull off the most essential cheats can be found in these pages. Every cheat has been numbered for your easy reference and reading pleasure. You will, however, notice that they are in no easily discernible order.

This is much like life, as the ways in which we cheat and the reasons we decide to do so don’t follow any particular patterns either. As you leaf through this book, let the myriad ways in which you can get one over on the other guy surprise and entertain you as you stumble on them, just as you will stumble on opportunities to exercise your new shady talents after reading this book.

You’ll also find that the information in each chapter has been neatly laid out in an easy step-by-step format so you can be up and running in no time with your new and improved life of chicanery.

Feel free to mix and match your cheats at will. A life without artful cheating isn’t a life worth living.

The book “The Art of Cheating” makes for very interesting reading indeed...
