Needs a grammar and word choice check. It’s “gang of female con-artists”, not “gang of female con-artist, and “the businessman’s financial empire to collapse”, not ” the businessman financial empire to collapse”.
First impression is that the protagonist being a charlatan doesn’t make for a sympathetic character. The deception could be well-deserved comeuppance even if it was the act of a criminal.
When a visually impaired mother gets contemptuously betrayed on his daughter’s surgery money, she must learn to become a con artist to blow the criminal businessman?s financial empire before the daughter ends up with the same eye disease.”
Try another one…
Somewhat clearer, but shouldn’t her objective goal be to get her money back for her daughter’s eye operation? She may want to take down the criminal as revenge — but that’s a bonus. Her primary goal is to get the money she needs for the surgery.
And “she must learn to become a con artist” is weak. Something like “she masters the art of the con” or “becomes a con artist” is stronger. The suspense in the story, the moment of truth, is not in the learning but the doing — can she pull off the con? (Of course, she must learn but that builds up to the moment of truth.)
Maybe like this?
When a visually impaired mother gets contemptuously betrayed on her daughter?s surgery money, she masters the art of the con to get the money back from the criminal businessman before the daughter ends up with the same eye disease.?
After losing the money to pay for her daughters eye surgery to a ruthless con-artist , a visually impaired woman herself becomes a con-artist in order to prevent her daughter from suffering her own visually impaired fate.
