I recently read The Greatest Hoax on Earth and my takeaway was the incredible extent to which bumbling pathological liars like Frank Abagnale or CW can build credibility through sheer persistence.
- nullc 5y agoIt's really super fascinating. Also many people are never taken and see that it's fake all along, even blowing the whistle but it just gets ignored. It often seems to take a long time for scams like this to really collapse. Or, I should say I'd find it fascinating if I weren't a target and a victim of it. :( being forced to live it is less than fun.
