RE: 10 ways to lie better, for when the FBI comes knocking!

in #writing8 years ago

That's a very good article about lying.

I'm not sure you can teach someone to save themselves from the Feds.. You either got it or you ain't got it. I call it sales technique and it's seen most obviously in natural persuaders who can convince you of their point of view without you feeling diminished. It can of course, be honed. *I've taught sales !)

There's another one too.. hedged statements containing qualifying phrases. As far as I can remember, etc

Stay Frosty !

There are a lot of con artists out there who are looking for the next mug ! they are the one who take it to the nth level. They sometimes use websites these days to part unwary suckers from their hard earned cash.

Haha thanks. I do admit I used the title more as clickbait. But the facts are all sound. I happen to be a good liar, I find the ones that use it for their own gain to be desperate. Thankfully I haven't gotten to that level yet.
I do hope people can see this and use it to stay more aware of those around them. You can never be certain who you are actually talking to on the internet. Lol.

ClickBait titles have been used since the dawn of publishing. I like the title. & it's good to know that like a Jedi you only use your skills for defense and knowledge. Lying is very powerful tool and knowing when you're being lied to is a valuable skill. It also takes a massive level of self awareness and honesty to develop this ability (which of course, you already know)
