I know con artists in real life. They are not educated. They just speak fast and make up ideas that laymen wont call them out on. When they unknowing try that on someone who has a background in the specific field, they fall apart or get angry. A lot of conartists don't even know they're doing it because they've been doing it for so long, they've conned themselves.
