Another one bites the dust

Reading the newspaper headline today makes me sick. Why? I have been observing the news about all kinds of cons. What is a con man? These people usually have the tendancy to talk with the sweetest promises and beautiful future by just doing the simplest and some~absolutely nothing.

Why do I hate con artist? Because they are difficult to identify and I have been conned too before. Being promised a job that pays too well - left my confortable job and had a great meetings at a Hotels and luxurious places, but after a month with no pay - i have second guess. The man promsed to pay - days become weeks, weeks become months and after 6th months (can you believe it....6TH MONTHS!) with no pay, i quit. The man has the sweetest promises and words. But, through the power and nagging from both parent and banks, i finally break the curse on me.

I was left with no job, no money and no savings. With God's help, i manage to land a job as a PA in a small company and i work my way up and here i am.

Yesterday, I watched the 999 show, which is aired every wednesday in TV3. This particular one is especially special because the law enforcer manage to caugth those Nigerians who are involve with the con syndicate which lured lonely women into promised love and con them of their money to release some hold back packages from the Kastam Dept. Poor women in the other end of the network, all they hope is love but in the process, they end up with no money. These nigerians are young at age 22 & 23 years old. Coming to our country as students, but in the end, they are our foreign nightmare. We shouldn't treat them like tourist. After so many cases happened due to these nigerians, why do we still allows them to come in here as students? Why do we allow foreign students to come here to study where as our local malaysian students do not have enough places in our university? Another point to ponder.

Malaysian Ladies, please be smart and wary of these people. We are gentle and cultured yet empathising to others, maybe too much. But we must aware that bad people does come in a bad way. Most of them come in through our empathy, sympathy, kindness and all the gentle values that we had in our DNA. So, please be very careful with strangers.
