    Smile Scan your credit card!

    What would be the easiest way of tricking money out of someone on the internet?

    Of course, this question is entirely hypothetical, or I'm asking for a friend of mine, whichever sounds more believable.

    Telling them you are the ghost of their late wife/husband/girlfriend/boyfriend and they need money to buy stuff in heaven.

    That worked for me >D

    Ok not really.

    Set up a fake online store, and tell people they have to send in a picture of their credit card.

    Pretend to be a girl, seduce a guy with e-boobs, cyber sex, whatever. Wheedle credit card info from him and ta da!

    It's a fairly common thing you'll hear from FFXI where someone gave their in-game girlfriend/boyfriend account info and that person went and sold all their gear and their character and then locked them out of the account.

    Sad.

    It's best to set up a phony stand and do this kind of thing on the street. Some people can be easily persuaded into giving their details

    Just waiting for someone to actually scan their credit card, you know, one of those people who rebel against everything. FIGHT THE POWER, LET US HAVE YOUR MONEY.

    hmm the best way I can think of? the charity scam or set yourself up as an mp3/divx distributer site (illegal files) some of those charge or just grab a couple of slutty girls who are up for a laugh get them to strip and have sex with each other/sex toys and then sell the resulting images on the net as porn. I happen to know some girls who would do that. Or become a financial dominatrix.
