Do you have any experience of facing con men? When you walk on the street, you probably meet someone who has good-looking dress and good manners.He stop you and ask you for a market survey of a certain company. After finishing some ordinary questions, he will ask you(even beg you) if you can leave your name,address and phone number. Then, his company will send a gift to you to thank for doing this survey and you also have a chance to win a big prize. And after few days, your phone rings and tell you that you have won the jackpot from their company, but you need to pay 15% of the jackpot for tax before you get the jackpot back. If you really do what he has said, I think your money will never come back.
This is an ordinary story that happens in taiwan day after day. Inspite everybody knows it is just a scam, there are still some people cheated by con men.
There are many stories about con men in Taiwan. They maybe ask you to donate money for a charity, or pretend a fund raiser to gather money for building a temple. Some con men even run into your company or house for donation about certain kind of reasons. They use your sympathy, curiosity and greed to pull your money out. Pitifully, someone just can't learn lessons from them.
