Are lawyers easily duped? Recent Internet hoaxes suggest they may be

An article in the New Hampshire Bar Journal’s Winter issue (Volume 52, Number 4), originally written for a Texas journal by Attorney Ellen Pitluk, collects some examples of this wave of scams, and suggests ways to avoid being duped. 

At the request of the Journal’s staff, Preti attorney William Saturley revised portions of the article to reflect the particular New Hampshire Ethics rules that are triggered by the fact patterns described in the article, “Client or Con?  Con Artists Excel on the Internet at Making Lawyers Their Mark.”
