Scam Stuff is all about the tools, gimmicks, and tricks to make you the most interesting person in the room. Just as Scam School is the show that's all about what you do at the bar, Scam Stuff is about what you take to the bar.

New items and specials are added every few weeks. From loaded dice to lockpick sets, from trick decks to sweet shirts, the goal is to keep you covered in all the gear you need to always have a trick up your sleeve.

Indiegogo Campaign

On 16 October, 2012, Brian launched an Indiegogo campaign to fund the establishment of Scam Stuff. Many of the perks effectively acted as pre-orders with a baby theme, paralleling the then-imminent birth of Calliope Brushwood, even including a top-tier reward granting naming rights to whoever donated $10,000 (unclaimed).

The campaign concluded on 14 November, 2012 with a total of $33,260. The website went live the next day on 15 November.

The Brian Brushwood Book Test

This is it: The Ultimate Book Test. Six years in the making, and (until now) performed by only a dozen mentalists worldwide. These are limited edition well-known best sellers, with only 500 ever being made, each containing three separate effects.

Card Decks

  • Invisible Deck [6]
The deck that works 100% of the time, and simply defies reason. This is a special, completely awesome trick deck of cards that will allow you to prove that you correctly predicted any named card. It requires no sleight of hand, and is one of the most important decks in the entire world of magic.
  • Marked Deck Solutions [7]
A marked deck is the most powerful item in your entire scam arsenal. And the best part? You can make one practically for free. There's even a Scam School episode over that! There are three sets to choose from: the dirt cheap DIY set, the reasonable middle ground set, and the incredibly limited edition top-of-the-line set.
Brought to you by special arrangement with our friends at Theory11, The Rebel deck was designed by visionary artist Shepard Fairey, of OBEY GIANT fame. You'll stand out from the crowd and feel like a total badass with these guys.
  • Stripper Deck [9]
This is another deck featured prominently on Scam School, but now you don't even have to make it yourself! These are pre-made, machined stripper decks, and they're not some crummy no-name brand, either. These are authentic, poker-sized bicycle decks. The same type of cards you're probably already using for your other card tricks!

Counterfeit

Counterfeit is your 5 perfect Get-Out-of-Jail-Free cards. No matter where you are, no matter what you're performing, you'll know that in your wallet, you're pre-set to pull of the strongest miracle in your arsenal: a crisp, new, borrowed $1 bill can be utterly destroyed in front of you, only to teleport to any place you want. They even come smuggled in a commemorative envelope, inside a Brian Brushwood poster, with limited stickers!

DVDs

Ever wonder how those guys on TV seem to talk to the dead? What about ESP and psychic surgery? As a magician, Brian’s wise to all the tricks used by frauds, tricksters, and con artists …and now he’s ready to take YOU to scam school. This is no ordinary lecture: we’re talking hands-on experiments, a live performance of psychic surgery, free giveaways of cash and prizes, and all the secrets TV psychics DON’T want you to know.
Topics covered in this 80-minute lecture include: scams, cons, ESP, UFOs, skeptic, skepticism, dowsing, astrology, memory, alternative medicine, psychic surgery, pseudoscience, coincidence, and crop circles.

Expanded Quarter Shell

Get Out of Jail Free Card

Want to know the trick to getting out of a speeding ticket? If you can make the cop laugh: you win. That's where this Opportunity Card comes in. After you're pulled over, all you have to do is whip this Get Out of Jail Free card out of your wallet and you're home free. Even the toughest cops will still helplessly crack a smile.

2 Poster Set

Brand spankin' new, limited edition, and totally signed. These posters are bad ass. They're pretty much the complete and total rejection of everything magic has been for the last 30 years. It's a revolution, and you're invited. Designed by artist Dan Schneider of Destroy Everything, each poster is signed by Brian Brushwood, and they'll be sent in special packaging.

The Rogue's Series

The Rogue's Flask holds up to 8 ounces of liquid and is about the same size as a standard flask. It is no standard flask though. This flask features cryptic hieroglyphs that provide cliff notes on 23 different Scam School effects, and the stainless steel center piece featuring a retro BB logo and glyphs is actually the bottom of a hidden telescopic shot glass embedded into the side of the flask.
The premium Rogue's Ring is made of solid Titanium, and has a groove cut out into which a special serrated handcuff shim has been placed. Handcuffs? Zip-ties? Both are covered, no problem. On top of all of that, each Rogue's Ring is covered in cryptic hieroglyphs that provide crib notes for 24 different scam school effects.
  • Rogue's Ring Replacement Escape Device [13]
This is a replacement shim for the Premium Titanium version of the Rogue's Ring just in case you lost the escape device or want a spare handy.

The Scam Pack

The Scam Pack is a collection of 17 different hard-to-find items, that will allow you to perform over 115 Scam School effects! We're talking about everything from specially-prepared books of matches, to the frixion pens used in the "hot seat" card trick, to a premium, top-of-the-line deck of Rebel cards from Theory11... and it's all bundled in the first-ever official Brian Brushwood Pint Glass.

Don't look at me like that, you know what this is, and you know just how much power this holds.
A simpler version of the best-selling "Scam Pack." Pull off half of the tricks for nearly half of the price! Perform dozens of card tricks with a beautifully crafted deck of Rebel cards and enjoy your free drinks in the one-of-a-kind Brian Brushwood Pint Glass.

Shirts

  • White BB Wagon Wheel Logo [18]
These are the last few collectible t-shirts from Brian's "Menace and Malice" run at Universal's 2010 Halloween Horror Nights. Once these sell out, they're gone forever.

Skeleton Keys

These bump keys with special BB skeleton designs change the dynamic of your key chain. You find yourself looking harder at every lock, figuring out what kind it is and wonder how long it'd take you to open it. ...not that you would... but you could. Whether you want a backup to help a friend out if they lose their keys, or if you just want a conversation starter, these will do the trick.

Extra Credit

Extra Credit is a video tutorial series for those of you who want to give some extra time and effort to practicing a more advanced technique. Things that Scam School can't cover. For only $2 you get 20 minutes that will go through all you need to know for these more advanced routines. [19]

Diamond Club

Sssh, this is our little secret okay? <>

The debut comedy album from Brian and Justin. It contains all the funny there ever was.
The sequel comedy album to Night Attack. Billboard #1 comedy album should be enough to convince you it's great, but if not, I give you my personal guarantee- guaranteed.
  • No Hobo T-Shirts from NSFW Live at Dragon Con 2013 [22]
