I've had experience with Gypsies working various insurance fraud scenarios. Whether American (they call themselves "Rom"), Traveler, or Eastern European cultural subgroups, Gypsies all have similar patterns as it relates to my business and we don't typically differentiate them. We usually just say "Gypsy" and let it be/as compared to saying "American Gypsy".
A good piece of fiction is "King Con" by Stephen Cannell. I haven't had a need to research non-fiction, so can't help there.
