|
|
A 'heads up' for those men who may be regular E-Mart, or Costco customers.
This one caught me by surprise.
Over the last month I became a victim of a clever scam while out shopping. Simply going out to get supplies has turned out to be quite traumatic. Don't be naive enough to think it couldn't happen to you or your friends. Here's how the scam works: Two seriously good-looking 20-something girls come over to your car as you are packing your shopping into the trunk. They both start wiping your windshield with a rag and Windex, with their breasts almost falling out of their skimpy T-shirts. It is impossible not to look. When you thank them and offer them a tip, they say 'No' and instead ask you for a ride to McDonalds. You agree and they get into the back seat. On the way, they start undressing. Then one of them climbs over into the front seat and starts crawling all over you, while the other one steals your wallet. I had my wallet stolen October 4th, 9th, 10th, twice on the 15th, 17th, 20th, 24th, & 29th. Also November 1st & 4th, twice on the 8th, 17th, 19th, 20th & 21st, three times last Monday and very likely again this upcoming weekend.
So tell your friends to be careful. What a horrible way to take advantage of older men. Warn your friends to be vigilant. E-Mart has wallets on sale for 3000 won each. I found cheaper ones for 2000 won at Insadong and bought them out. Also, you never will get to eat at McDonalds. I've already lost 11 pounds just running back and forth to Lotte World, E-Mart, and Costco.
I just purchased another 100 wallets from Costco. They are cheap wallets, wallets for children. But, it really does not matter that they have cartoons and Disney pictures on them, all that matters is what�s in the wallets. I have replaced the 50k�s, 10k�s with 1k's. Too much details, any way, you�ve been warned. |

Holy crap. Is this a re-post? I swear I have read this before. But the post date says Nov 22. Same with the dude complaining about paying for plastic bags.  |

Ha, Ha! I remember this one. As I was reading it, I was trying to imagine what Korean girls would have the guts to do this. Apparently, it's an old hooker trick in towns like Washington, D.C... |

Its a new trend; blatantly obvious trolls with a touch of humor

In the hope of more "unpleasant" attacks I presume. Are you in Bogota or Phnom Penh, btw? |

Yeah, I got this one in an email last year - only it was set in North America at one of the big box stores.
Hilarious! I tried to get the email address for the outlet to warn them about it but couldn't find it. Then I looked for my wallet and couldn't find that either.  |

I remember the first time it was posted, and enjoyed it just as much this time! Why would anyone get bent out of shape and start calling the OP "troll" for posting something amusing? |

I'm sorry, as I didn't realize it was a re-post. Anyway, I thought that a few people might get a smile out of it.
Oh well.
I'll just resume my typical snarky posting style, and refrain from such blatant attempts to share a little comic relief in the future.
Besides, it seems like a lot of posters on this forum are looking for a fight, if you can't beat 'em, join 'em. |

It was at this line that I realize it was a troll.
I mean- Korean girls- with breasts? |

Damn funny stuff! I am sure I will use it in some form in the future(don't worry, not on Dave's).
Also, I'm not sure how this can be called trolling. It was an obvious joke, unlike that post elsewhere about the phony bathroom towel popping incident. |

Hmm.... I don't have a car.
Will they offer to wash my bicycle instead?  |
