[quote=TEXAS80,398936]I remember when I got caught up in a scam here in my hometown of Austin, TX. Walked out of my bank, guy was gonna offer me $100 to take him 3 miles away. He asked about my bank account showed me a lot of money he needed....long story short it was a pidgeon drop scheme.My lucky ticket was not having any money in the first place. I had $30 in my bank account, $5 in my wallet....haha. Didn't know it was a scam until I told a guy at work about what happened later in the day. Not sure how to prevent scamming 100% but at least reading all these stories and even some from Wikitravel http://wikitravel.org/en/Common_scams would seem to help. Knowledge is power in this case. :)[/quote]
