One thing that unites many of these teenage con artists is ambition. They're not just making fake IDs to buy cheap beer -- they're trying to swindle adults out of hundreds of thousands of dollars. Take the British kid who, under the pseudonym "Adam Tait," managed to convince several major airlines that he was a wealthy entrepreneur who wanted to launch a budget flight service through the Channel Islands. Tait kept up his deception for a staggering six months, with multiple companies taking him seriously. He was only caught when he attempted to rent a private plane for a photo shoot. This wasn't the first big deal that young Tait had tried -- the year before, he hatched a complex scheme to bring the cast of High School Musical to the town of Shropshire.
