They conned me

Tweet

l was sitting out of my apartment, a car came with a woman, man and 5 children all squeezed in this tiny car.Right away l could see the kids were tired and hungry and l felt so sorry for them. The woman asked for directions and l said sorry l don't know,then l asked if she`d like something to drink with the children. Went up brought 12-liter water, cola and orange juice.When l came back she had this "Gold"ring and offered it for $150 l said no thanks,she kept begging so l agreed to buy for 100.to make long story short, I bought 3 items all at 300 and felt proud at being lucky on a Sunday. In my mind l had helped a family in need.she explained she was on her way to France and they did not have money for fuel,she was selling the gold cheap because she got them from her grandma in Romania years ago and now she was desperate. The money that l gave was not even mine but l could not let such a bargain pass me by,stupid me l did not even check if the gold was real, I'm naive and trusting and i believed what she said. The first person l told,told me even without looking at my purchase that they are fake,and he was right all was fake l had lost 300+50 that l gave to the kids directly. When l told another friend, his was even worse, it was more or less the same trick,this time with a camera which he paid 20 Euro because the people in the car were so desperate for food and gas. As soon as the car moved,they gave him the finger and he could not understand why,when he checked the camera box, there was a stone inside and no camera. l never forgave the woman, l could have given her the 50 free for her kids. Have you been fooled so badly and conned?
