RE: Antigua and Barbuda, Market Friday Style

in Market Fridaylast year

There was a scam going on downtown by some dog rescue group.

Looks like these people are everywhere. A few weeks ago I met a similar group in Szolnok, Hungary. They said that they are from the government, and that they collect donations for the sick children in the hospital. But the government is not doing such a thing. Hopefully not many people fall for these scams.

The world is full of these scammers. Some are more obvious than the others. Asking for an ID and/or for some kind of paper in these cases can be a good idea, but some of the scammers are making fake IDs and/or fake papers. Best to be prepared for these things, and approach them from a critical viewpoint.

Have a nice day and have a nice weekend.
All the best. Greetings and much love from Hungary.

You are right! They do make their own ID so I never give it to people on the street asking for money for a cause. They don't normally do that. I can't remember the last time I saw them do that, so, I will give to a cause, but, not one out there soliciting on the street.

With all the scamming going on, I am sure they no longer do it.

Thanks so much for stopping by and leaving your words.

#MarketFriday loves you!
