Couple years ago a perfectly respectable looking guy came up to me with a broken car key telling me how he broke the key in the ignition and then accidentally locked the car. He only needed $2 for the bus to get his spare set from home. I offered to help him break into his car, but he insisted it was too far away. Whatever, it was $2 so I gave it to him.

I've since run into him two more times with the same story in the same parking lot. No idea why he's got such an elaborate story for a measly $2. Also can't imagine making much each day.

I also had a friend fall for the computer virus popup scam. She told me the next day how she opened the link and filled in her credit card info, but the virus popup was still on her computer. I told her to check her transactions right now and sure enough, there were multiple payments to "google corp" that had maxed out her card. I had no idea that people under 30 fell for these.
