It’s a fact – nobody likes a scammer. No matter how hard they work or how much effort they put into their craft, scammers are, at the end of the day, morally questionable. However, that doesn’t mean they can’t be ingenious (and hilarious) with their schemes! It’s insane how clever some of them can be to swindle money out of other individuals, whether young or old. Here are some of the funniest, craziest, and downright smart scammer stories from across the Internet. You might be surprised at the lengths some people will go to get some cash!

I’m kicking off this list with quite a banger. Not only did this guy manage to scam the airport once, but he managed to continue this charade for over a year! Even after they told him to stop, he still managed to make money by getting a refund for the ticket.

I wonder what made them figure out the truth in the end. Perhaps one of the restaurant workers recognized him, or maybe he made a blunder that gave away his secret. Either way, he must’ve cost the airport a pretty penny, and I’m sure that they feel mad about it now!
