Dear Diary,

Due to the economy crisis, more scammers on the run!

Yes the title said it all and i have 4 scenarios.....

Scenario 1
Once upon a time, a man walked into my shop and was begging for money. The way he beg for money is different from the beggar on the road. The technique he used was:-

A: Mam, I from KL, and was looking for job here at Penang, but no one wanted to hire me, everywhere said they had enough people. Now I wanted to go back to KL, but i dont have money to do so. Please Mam, can u spare me some money to buy a bus ticket to go home? At least, i wont be sleeping on the road, and have a proper home to go back to.

Yes I paid him a few ringgit

Scenario 2
B: Xiao Jie (Miss), can you help me? this is my card from General Hospital, I needed MONEY to do operation on my eyes.... look here... this one i had fixed it... but i needed money for another side of my eye... please donate me some.. cause i have no money.
*keep showing me the hospital's card*

Yes i paid him a few ringgit too (since he is too old grr) - soft spot for old ppl?

Scenario 3
C: Cik, can you help me please? i needed some cash to go home... i was here in penang for a week or 2 (forgotten). i got retrench from work and i have no money to go home :'( (CRY), i stay in Kulim, all i need is money enough for a bus ticket to go home.... please help me....

Edit:
* i been sleeping at Komtar's BUs Station...plz help me... *

He keep talking non stop, my mum was there, my maids were there.... and he stand there for freaking 30minutes... so my mum paid him and my maids WARN him @@''

Scenaro 4 WHICH HAPPENED LIKE 10 MINUTES AGO
I was on the phone .... and suddenly a girl walked in..... with a very pity face :( G : XIAO JIE (miss) can you help me? I from KL, and i been here for 1 week, now i dont have money.... :( can you help me?

I : @@'' i heard this excuses for zillion times...

G: is true.... please help me.. look this is my photostated lost ic and such, and show that hi really from KL...

I : nope, now economy crisis, and similar ppl been asking money that way....

G: Im not asking for money, just a bus ticket... please ....

I : only RM2... i can spare..... yes or no...

She just walked out.....

So please readers, is that a scam or real scenario????? with everyone trap in Penang and needed money to go home?

Categories: scammer [t], human [t], [t]

I never trust people who ask for money and I never give them any. Maybe they really are poor, but there are other ways to get help than begging for money (Goodwill, Salvation Army, Multi-Service Center, etc).

Maybe you should just post a sign that says "beggers not allowed" haha

if she/he doesn't want RM2, then the person is not desperate.

anyway i had paid a young guy ticket back in wellington. no idea why i did that.

can hardly trust anyone lately. i usually look at their clothing. i don't believe someone desperate can still wear very well. there are so many well-dressed beggars around.
