Confidence Game Theater
Cough Security Researcher

This presentation will include a brief discussion of the history, nature, and basic principles behind Confidence Games. For the bulk of the presentation we will be acting out some Confidence Games in skit form.

Cough is an amateur historian with a strong interest in crimes of deception.
