I could kick myself. A young woman politely stopped me in food store parking lot, needing money

58. Not me. Professional scammers are lying sociopaths who are expert at recognizing and preying

upon nice, kind, good hearted people. Scammers are easily trapped in their lies, and the only thing scammers ever get from me is shot down and schooled.

Since I have something, and they want something, that gives me the power to immediately and confidently assert control of the situation. I become the player, and the scammer loses all control and power, and becomes the mark. It's totally unnecessary to ever get taken for a ride by a scammer.

There's a lot of nice, kind people, who are not very world wise out there who are always willing to help people in need, and scammers all too often play these nice people, and burn them, and turn them into cynics who are no longer willing to help people.

So fuck scammers, all of them. I'll play them and humiliate them whenever I get the opportunity; there's nothing a slimy sociopath hates worse than having their ego smashed by being totally made a fool of at their own game by someone they marked.

I'll always help people who honestly need and are seeking help. Even if a drunk tells me he's a drunk and needs a bottle of Mad Dog 20/20 and a ham sandwich "to get back right with the world", I have no problem buying him a bottle and some food.
