EP 35 - Natwarlal - India's greatest con man

Natwarlal was the most successful con man in India's history and is still revered by many as something of a folk hero. Over a career of several decades, he mastered forgery, impersonation, and social engineering to pull off scams that are too crazy to believe including selling the Taj Mahal to foreign tourists on three separate occasions.  To this day his name is used as a verb for anybody that's trying to pull off a scam.
