The person asking for help and relentless and frantic sounding and claims to have a lot at stake and risk of losing if someone does not help him (her) immediately. Then, of course, comes the need for money assistance until blah, blah, blah...
We just encountered a situation like this on mobility mobi. |
lol i saw you mention this over there and i think you are way too paranoid.. the person over there wasnt asking for money even indirectly they were just naive and got scammed and frustrated/clueless about it... i really dont think most people are so nice that they wanna "help out" financially someone that is telling a story about being scammed... this tactic would not have a very high turnover rate. drink less coffee smoke more pot... or vice versa maybe.
