Sturdy beggars mostly conned people. A man called O'Bedlam would follow you around and bark until you give him a shilling or two. There was also the Baretop Tricksters these women would flash at men so they would buy her a meal the man would think he could get sex so he would go to her place. At her place there would be a vicious gang waiting to rob the man. If he is lucky he might get away with his life. The is also a man who wouldhave a specially weighted dice so the dice would roll onto his number this meant people would gamble and lose their money . There was alos the Clapper Dudgeon who would cut himself and then put dirty rags on it so it would look worse.
