    I've carried out some research on fraudsters and was just wondering what professions they show an aptitude for?

    If you've carried out the research, shouldn't you be telling us?

    Well, you't think they'd show an aptitude for any profession in which being able to talk convincingly is an asset, and for professions in which the ability to "read" someone accurately and quickly, and understand what will appeal to them and attract them, is useful.

    So, sales of any kind. Marketing. Advertising/PR. The skills that will make you a good fraudster will also make you a good salesman, I'd reckon.

    On a serious note, I think a insight into the psychology of people would be something a fraudster would need, intuitive, confident, good at reading people, building relationships!!

    Wait I'm describing a therapist here !!!
