How to use "Confidence man" in context?
Confidence man is someone who uses their charisma, good looks, and persuasive talking skills to cheat or swindle others out of money. They typically prey on those who are naive or vulnerable, and will often ply their victims with expensive gifts or promises of future riches.
Despite their charms, confidence men are typically dishonest and skilled at making people think they are their friends when in reality they are only trying to take advantage of them. If you find yourself being played by a confidence man, remember that you are not alone and there are people who will help you get back on your feet.
