Many years ago I had a very bad nose bleed at work and was taken to a nearby hospital.Spent 2 hours sitting in a corridor squeezing my nose.Each time I relaxed the squeeze the bleeding continued.Eventually I was given ice packs to apply to my head and after about 3 hours the bleeding stopped.
I phoned my wife to come and collect me.Whilst waiting I could see a woman approaching people at the entrance to the hospital,all of whom walked away.Eventually,she came over to me(I was standing a fair way from the entrance) and explained that the previous night she had gone out for some air and had collapsed in the street and had spent the night in the hospital and could I lend her £3 for her bus journey home.I had no money on me but told her I was awaiting my wife.She returned to the entrance,to no avail. When my wife arrived,I was able to give the woman the money for her bus fare.She asked me for my address in order to return the money.When I told her just to forget about it she started crying ![]() No way was I conned.As it happens this poor woman had the worst eczema that I've ever seen. |

Invalid pass? No money? .....don't get on the bus...... walk it.

A few years ago a nicely dressed girl came up to me when I was parking my car outside a supermarket, gave me a sob story and asked for £1-87 to make up her bus fare as she was short of the amount needed. I gave her £2.
Some days later at a different car park another girl approached and asked for the exact same amount. I told her to get lost as it was too much of a coincidence. It occurred to me that £1-87 needs a minimum of 6 coins for the exact amount so people will give £2 as it's unlikely they will have the exact amount. I don't mind giving my change to down and outs but I hate dishonesty and these women didn't look down at heel. |

Similar tale, girl walking round town with empty plastic petrol can saying run out of petrol, could you give her £2.
Saw her more than once trying this con, unfortunately a lot of people, generally older, will fall for this. The other one I hate from when I smoked is the scroungers in town who used to see you light up a cigarette and immediately come over and ask for one, usually outside bus/train station. |
