Revealing SCAMS
I am looking for recommendations on what to read next. I have just finished reading Exposure by Louis S Warde which reveals scams in the modelling industry. The subject of how people and businesses operate scams is fascinating so if any of you know of any books on scams in any field I would by interested to hear from you.
