A Proposition Bet
A proposition bet is basically “I can bet you I can do something when you bet against me that I cannot do this”. You talk about something that sounds absolutely impossible to do so most people will tell you “Well, there’s no way that can be done”. But if you turn to them and say “Yes, there is a way…” by this time they are so curious just to see how this is going to work that usually they’ll just pay a fiver (5 pounds or dollars) just to see what happens!
A proposition bet, is a great way to hustle a few free drinks in a meal. Have a look at the video!

The Definition: The Bogus Agency Scam is one of the more elaborate hustles, entailing the renting of space to set up a phony talent agency. The aim of the scam is to play upon the victims’ desire to make it big in show business – and their willingness to back up this desire with hard-earned cash. The set-up is complicated, but for the scammers, the payoff is big time indeed.
The Mark: Any talented – or, for that matter, not so talented – young lady or gent who believes that he’s destined for the bright lights and big city. This lust for celebrity blinds them to the reality of the situation – the cons are not interested in your voice, they are interested in your money!
The Scam: Britain’s Got Talent, American Idol, The X Factor and shows of this ilk have all conspired to make The Bogus Agency Scam more popular than ever before. Folks see talented amateurs being rewarded with great celebrity and national attention, season after season; young people who were improbably given the opportunity to quit their day job – and to pursue a life of glamour and excitement in the heady world of show business.

The Definition: The Window Tap Scam is a simple case of misdirection, the same as any amateur magician might use. While you are focusing your attention on some mundane task, your valuable items are being secreted away by one of the scam artists.
The Mark: Any careless individual who is not paying proper attention to the location of his or her valuables. An item that you cannot see, or are not touching, is grist for the hustler’s mill.
The Scam: One of our light-fingered scam artists has noticed a young woman at a café, who has foolishly hung her pocketbook on the back of her chair. She cannot see it; she cannot feel it; and very soon, she will not have it. This mark will pay the price for her trusting nature.

The mustard dip scam
Definition: the mustard-dip scam is essentially one more variation of the common methods that ordinary thieves use to pickpocket you.
It is a known fact that cut-pursers prefer it when your purse is inside the ‘default’ position, the back pocket of your jeans (especially true for men). Now, imagine yourself walking down a busy, crowded street; your purse is full of money but as long as it’s inside your coat’s pocket you feel very calm and secure, right? Well, as it turns out hustlers have found new methods of physically separating you from your money, even when your purse is not in your back pocket! The scam requires at least two persons, ideally three or more. The scenario is described below:
