A: "Con," "scam," and "fraud" are all terms that refer to dishonest or deceitful behavior, but they have slightly different connotations.

"Con" is short for "confidence" and refers to a scheme in which someone gains the trust of another person in order to take advantage of them.

Example: He ran a con on the elderly woman, convincing her to give him money for a fake investment opportunity.

"Scam" is a more general term that refers to any fraudulent scheme that is designed to trick or deceive someone.

Example: The email claiming to be from the bank was actually a scam, designed to steal personal information.

"Fraud" refers to any deliberate act of deception for financial or personal gain.

Example: The businessman was found guilty of fraud after it was discovered that he had falsified financial records.
