Lately, I have been a approached by the two different girls. The one I think twice at different occasion and the other one was today. I remember there is one guy who also try to talk to me. They are all standing at the street and looking for someone they can approach. I turned them down all at the start. why? because I am afraid that it might be one of the scam. I don't want to know about their business so I'm not interested. If you live in my country, you will understand why I didn't entertain them. With all the fraud, scams and crimes happens here, I just protecting my self.

yes, I agree with you. there are lots of scams and frauds nowadays. It is hard to distinguish who is who. It is better to be cautious.

We have students and adults who ask us to donate to certain charities too. Most of the times, I just ignore them. If I want to donate, I will ask to see their police permit.

I learned that in Singapore, the beggar or anyone soliciting needs permit. In my country, soliciting needs not permit. But it is still depends on the people if they will give money. I'm not sure if they are head hunter (hunting for applicant in call center) or they are asking for money so they can go home. Before I give money to those asking, but now that I know this is not true and just people's alibi to get money from people they know.
