As we had almost become a victim of fraud in the "decency" Madrid
I take this opportunity to share personal experiences of how we almost did not become a victim of fraud in the "decency" Madrid.
Come on, we are on the Gran Via, this equivalent of Tver, or Fifth Avenue, come in to us a man of eastern species, very well dressed, and in English (both realized that we do not speak Spanish?) Asked us whether we him to change for two euros for fifty cents. Like, should call and cell dead. Along the way, asks how do we - it turns out he was in Russia, and immediately transferred into Russian.
Would pass us by, but natural faith in the good in man and his condusive eloquence makes me take out his wallet. I open my wallet is, I begin to look for, and he comes close to me, looks back and shows so finger - that's pyatidesyatitsentovaya coin. I redeem him, was going to remove the wallet, but there is something pricked me, and I decided to check if everything is there on the spot.
Opens again - bam! Stoevrovaya bill was lost. I lift my eyes to him: "Is that you took the coin?"
"What a money" - is responsible.
I looked around on the sidewalk and see - here it is! Lift it, turn around, and it has a trace, gone, the bastard!
Immediately realized how he does it:
masterful gesture, when the index shows that there is a bargaining chip in your wallet, middle poddevaet bill, and resets it to the pavements. On all leaves of a second, you costs, he departs for a couple of steps, then comes back and picks up a bill from the sidewalk. If you got it at "dumping" bill, to show nothing is impossible - in his hands is nothing, but that money down - is you dropped them.
This here is a simple, simple, relatively safe way to make money on those who are not fully mastered the simple rule: never, under any circumstances, do not respond to requests from strangers to do something that makes you "light up" Your wallet . I thank God, in time to react, but how many of those who come across? The most conservative estimate, daily earnings of the now rogue - 400-500 euros per day.
