If this is an actual con rather than the undercover work also mentioned there's soem means of tranferring wealth from the mark. That probably needs Merchant or possibly Finance for very large value cons dealing with that sort of thing.
The undercover job still need Actign to carry out but planning would use Streetwise, Criminology or both.
At any rate you're going to need multiple rolls v. multiple skills but I believe the Skills in question probably already exist.
If your really want just one "Skill" to roll agaisnt I think you're looking at Con!.
