I almost got my Moneybookers account hacked because of a perfect scam email.
Luckily, I checked the email first. I was very tired when I first read it.
About 75% of my money is in that account and I most of my poker and betting accounts had the same password. Even though I didn't send them anything, I scanned my PC, laptop and Mac and I changed all of my passwords into difficult ones.
In 2008 in Italy, a big black guy grabbed my wrist in the middle of the day on a high school trip and he tried to wave me a bracelet. I did an old self defende technique and threw him on the ground.
I knew where it was going because a guy form my class had the same thing done to him by another dude and he was ''forced'' (read: intimidated) to pay 5 bucks for the bracelet.
During the same school trip, a seemingly homeless lady came up to me and the group of students I was with. She showed me a picture of her two children and begged for money. A guy from the group told her no and she walked away.
A little whil later, another homeless woman came asking for change and she showed the SAME picture. I will never forget that. It was pretty funny, but sad at the same time.
They probably worked for some guy who's like a pimp, but without the sex.
