New Yorker: The Con Man

Have you guys read this fascinating true story about the French con man Frederic Bourdin? As I was reading it this weekend, I kept exclaiming, "Oh my God!" out loud. I highly recommend printing it out.

P.S. Other good con-artist capers: the movies House of Gamesand Bonnie and Clyde(bonus: her clothes are amazing).
