Answer 1

The Confidence Man by H.Melville .

Answer 2

Many of The Saint stories by Leslie Charteris featured confidence tricks. They were set in the forties so are dated but would work in the modern world. If anything people seem more gullible these days.

Answer 3

Paper Moon by Joe David Brown

Catch Me If You Can: The True Story of a Real Fake by Stan Redding and Frank W. Abagnale

The Big Con: The Story of the Confidence Man by David Maurer
