EN: Swindler; con artist
The main character in an 'estapa' story. This is the person with the silver tongue and a business plan that defies logic but sounds amazing. They'll promise you double-your-money in a week, sell you land they don't own, or recruit you into a pyramid scheme disguised as 'networking'. They are the 'budol-budol' masters of the financial world.
From Spanish 'estafador'.
A very negative term for a person who commits fraud.
