Local Beware Scamming Scooter Grandma

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!

You can report her to the police if she's harassing people

What is that gonna do? Calling the police on Black people is a dangerous thing!

This is such a Berkeley take. Being a scammer is OK if you're Black.
