Dear Ms. Croft:
I was recently flimflammed, or possibly hornswoggled. I'm okay
with this; but what concerns me is that I don't know the
difference. Are there guidelines that you can furnish that will
allow me, in future, to approach flimflamming and hornswoggling
interactions with a better ability to distinguish the two?
