Default An incident in a nice quiet neighborhood

We had an incident in our home this past New Years Eve. I thought I would post the link describing the incident here to my fellow forum members so they can be aware of the tactics being used by the less savory elements of our society.
The link is to Fernando FerFal Aguirres "Surviving in Argentina" website. I posted the incident there a week after it happened while it was fresh in my mind. Many of you are probably already familiar with his site.

Criminals rely upon the either the greed, or the goodness and naivete of potential victims. The perpetrator obviously was angling for the latter two.

My cousin in Chicago is EXTREMELY religious and is always giving money to bums on the street. I fear that she's eventually going to come to a bad end, but she doesn't listen to advice that goes against her religious convictions.

I'm glad things worked out for you. I just had lunch with my mother and she was explaining how she gave a ride to a woman off the street because "women are safe" and I told her how wrong she was. Just sent my mother a copy of your example...

Good or bad, the SOP in my house is don't open the door for ANYONE you don't know well.

We should never be lulled into complacency because we live in a nice neighborhood.
