MY FIRST ENCOUNTER WITH CON-MEN-part2

Then he asked both of us to put all the money and valuables we had in his handkerchief and said he would perform some magic.The moment he said this i understood that he his to con me and i said,"It's getting late,i have to go to the bank".I even said,"I have no money".So he said,"Why don't u put your gold chain".I thought this is getting too much.The other man besides me had put all the money he had in the handkerchief and urged me to do the same.But then i remained adamant and left the place immediately.They tried their level best to convince me but i didn't budge.

Now while coming back from the bank,i found neither of the two men who were talking with me.Then i understood that both of them were trying to cheat me,the man from UP as well as the man who ws just walking down the street.Then i realised that both of them were partners.I rushed home to tell this incident to my mom.As i entered my house,my mother gave me a hug and said,"You have got admission in kit college of engg,kolhapur(a grade)".My joy knew no bounds and then i told my mother about the incident.She was just shocked to hear this and warned me never to talk with stangers.


As they say -- STRANGERS ARE DANGER

MY FIRST ENCOUNTER WITH CON-MEN-part 1

This incident happened way back in 2005 when i had appeared for many engineering entrance exams like iit,aieee,bits and mh-cet.And to my fortune i had scored less in all these exams and was unsure about getting an engineering seat.So everyday i used to get scoldings from my mom for not performing well in my exams.Due all these reasons i was very sad during that phase of my life.

During that time one day my father gave me a cheque which i had to deposit in a bank which was quite far from my house.So i left for the bank on my cycle.On my way to the bank a man aged aroung 25-30 stopped me and enquired about an address.I said to him,"I don't the address".But he started to tell me that he has lost his purse and has no money.I said "sorry",but he continued saying that he has come from UP where he was a sadhu(priest) and had come to Mumbai to meet his brother.

Slowly he started to enquire about me,asking "Are u studying?".I said "Yes".He said looking at me,"You must be through a lean patch in ur carrier,you must have got less marks in ur exam and so on".So i started thinking,was he an astrologer or doing some guessing work.Suddenly he stopped another man who was walking down the street and told the same story he sid to me.

SO WHAT NEXT ?
