Shell Game in Stockholm on July 7th, 2011

The gang of scammers was back to Stockholm after their Copenhagen visit earlier in the summer. They try to convince other people to make bets, by pretending to be betting, and usually winning. When a person who is not from the gang tries to make a bet, he will surely lose the money.

Here they are in Västerlånggatan, central Gamla Stan. In the end of the video, they try to convince the mark with the white shirt to play.



The woman is a fairly new addition to the scammers.

















Some of them speak quite good German. In the end of a video, they try to make a German tourist stop photographing, but in the end of the video, they give up and leave.

This is the same kind of scamming that has been going on in Geneve lately, where it is called "bonneteau".
