...Itinerant con men and hucksters seem not to be as common in real life as they used to be, probably because they've all moved to the Internet.
Agreed. Granted my life is different now, but there was much more "street" action - shady deals, grey market stuff, general hustling, etc. - that did seem to fade as the Internet came on in the second half of the '90s.
