Jeza posted:Some clowns pay to go and work on farms in dirt poor countries to be culturally enriched. I have some friends that considered paying an obscene amount of money to pretend to be a peasant in Mongolia. They eventually reconsidered, but not for a rational reason like paying someone else to do their farm work is a bad idea. A different group of friends were in on the scammer side. They would order cases of the McFarlane sports figures to get the rare and valuable ones (one per box of six) then they'd do a no-receipt return the regular ones for store credit at some big box store. For anyone that isn't aware, there was a British show called The Real Hustle that ran a bunch of scams on (maybe) regular people. Some were rather elaborate scams they pulled, well beyond what the average crackhead on the street corner could manage. Entertaining watch, here's a sample: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=479uU2WpjtQ

I like going to places in the US where guys are hocking their CD because I pay them in assortments of Canadian change. Once I run out I just say no, though I've had a few people accuse me of being racist because I won't buy their CD. If you actually like that music, I figured you could scam them back by getting some fake business cards printed up as if you worked at a radio station and exchanging those.
