"U.S. Scam" is also a scam: dealing with scammers is too bad

I can’t like a character like Evan, and I don’t like Rich, who pretends to be clever and wants to play with everyone. After watching this movie, I came back to my senses, I'll go, I can still play like this.

Evan accidentally met Sidney, a stripper, and the two hit it off and started a smooth fraud. It was indeed smooth. Evan and Sidney were a match made in heaven. They deceived countless people, but they couldn't find evidence. They used the anxiety and fear of the borrower to successfully deceive them again and again. Until the appearance of FBI detective Richie, the two people's scam was broken through, and Sidney was arrested and imprisoned.

Under Rich's lobbying, the two decided to cooperate obediently. To cooperate with Rich to engage in another scam, that is, to find a chief and the mayor to talk about cooperation and investment, rebuild the city, and seize the evidence of bribery by the mayor and councillors.

So Evan and others met with the mayor, and Evan persuaded the mayor to become good friends with the mayor. It is rare that the mayor really believed in Evan. The two went to bars and nightclubs together, and the mayor also prepared gifts for Evan. The chief is played by the police, and a good show begins. The big boss of the Las Vegas casino also participated, and the flaws were concealed by Evan again and again. During this process, Sidney also flirted with handsome Rich, and her relationship with Evan was also at risk during this period.

In the end, the mayor was arrested, the congressman was also arrested, Evan and Sidney reconciled, and even Rich was fiddled with. This is really a deception. The story is reversed, but I really don't like it.
