Something happened though in the last 12 months or maybe a little more, when the economy got tough, it seemed scammers really came out of the woodwork. It totally jaded me, and I hate that. I'm already a pretty cynical person.
Oh yeah, sure - not all of the donation/charity threads around here are scams. But for every charity thread that works out, there is one where someone cons people out of money.

There was some asshole on here that said his kid had a fucking brain tumor!!! Rolled out with i think 20g's playing on peoples heart strings
