I, for one, don't help liars. Come back when you decide to conduct business ethically.

I'm with Daniel on this one, I'm not one to help out somebody who plans to scam or even THINKS about scamming a peer.

Dude seriously. You have to adjust your mentality because scamming is not the way to go . You'll make alot of enemies quick including the law.

sorry bro, i agree with the comments above

Don't scam people, it will come back to haunt you. It's too easy to make money legally to put oneself at risk by trying to make it illegally. You'll sleep better at night for a number of reasons if you keep everything on the level.

Buy things cheap and resell them, preferably something that you know a lot about and can price accordingly.

i.e. comic books (craigslist is a great source), cars, jewelry, video games, business equipment, consumer goods, etc....

You could also try to offer some sort of freelance service for a fee. What are you good at (other than lying)?

I would say it would be nice to plow some capital (once you've stacked up a little) into vending machines (preferably an existing route you buy from someone), but that can be hard unless you're able to drive. Maybe very local ones only.

I have to agree with the comments above. Scamming is not the way to go. You may make a quick buck to start out, but when people find out what you are doing, your business career will be tarnished. Plus why would you want to go to sleep at night, knowing that the product or service you provide is a scam. Its not real money, its not legit. People come to this site to get answers, and knowledge on how to be a success and be an honest entrepreneur. So I have to agree, come back when you have changed your mind, and decided to provide a real service or product that is legit.
