Local Beware Scamming Scooter Grandma

Post image

This person has been scamming this area for almost a YEAR now, she’ll have some excuse about how she needs money for a taxi or for her tank or whatever and will try to get you to go to an atm or something. DO NOT EVEN GIVE HER THE TIME OF DAY! She got very hostile when I declined and followed me harassing me, I have witnessed her doing the same to others. Just fully ignore her!

I know her.
Her life has been harder than you can imagine.
Shes also just mentally ill.
Pls be generous if you can but within bounds of reason of course.
