These are the 14 red flags to identify the scammer in your life before they con you--from a victim-turned-vigilante and host of the hit podcast Queen of the Con.

"Johnathan Walton has written a master class on how to spot scammers, con artists, grifters, and thieves. And his storytelling reads like a crime novel. . . . A must-read."--Joe Navarro, FBI special agent (ret.) and author of the international bestseller Dangerous Personalities

"Some people play golf on the weekends," Johnathan Walton says. "I hunt con artists."

Con artists are everywhere--your new boyfriend or girlfriend, your new neighbor or coworker, your new friend--and they don't outsmart you; they out-feel you to get their hands on your money. In Anatomy of a Con Artist, Walton lays out "the tells" based on hundreds of real-life cases he's investigated, including:

Red Flag #1--A Stranger Offering Help: Someone new and overly helpful insinuates themselves into your life.

Red Flag #3--Drama, Drama, Drama: Constant dramatic "emergencies" to pull you in.

Red Flag #8--Beak Wetting: Faux generosity--gifts, money, or favors to bring your guard down.

After being scammed out of nearly $100,000 by a devious con artist, Walton was turned away by police. Infuriated and armed with the investigative skills he'd gained from years as a TV reporter, Walton launched his own investigation and built a compelling criminal case authorities could not ignore. Walton got his con artist charged, prosecuted, and convicted, then devoted his life to helping other victims do the same. This book packs in all he has learned.

Some con artists scheme for money, some for attention, some just for the thrill of lying. And if you think it can't happen to you, then you are exactly the kind of "mark" a professional con artist is looking for. With this insightful guide in your hands, you are far less likely to get conned and far more likely to spot these nefarious manipulators from a mile away--and cross the street when you see them coming.

Surprisingly good!
Format: Paperback
I came into this with a certain amount of skepticism and was glad to read the author's candid remarks about learning about how she uses sound to help people out. McKusick does a good job of weaving together personal experiences, interactions with others and published scientific picture to give a complete view about how energy flows through us in much different ways then we are aware of or that we allow ourselves to investigate and explore. She has put in years to learn more about electricity, the connection of the body with sound and how pain can be an indicator of more than your physical body. Anyone with an open mind, even someone like me who's not a Deepak Chopra type of person, will take things away from this and will learn more about something they haven't heard about before reading this book. Good overall read!
