Ukrainian guy here, living and working in the Czech Republic. Got scammed out of 2500 CZK (~120 USD).
Sick of Czechs calling Ukrainians trash, while they pull shit like this.

Work at a small-town pizzeria. One night I’m delivering pizza, call the customer and say I’ll be there in 3 minutes.
A chick answers, asks if I can grab stuff from a gas station. I hesitate sounds sketchy. She starts guilt-tripping me, says she’s got a baby and can’t leave.
Yeah, I’m a sucker for that. She promises a good tip, I agree.

She texts me: cigarettes + paysafecard for 2500 CZK.
Instant red flag. I call her, say it sounds like a scam. She gets bitchy, says I’ve got nothing better to do at 10 p.m. than annoy her. I hear a baby crying, I’m tired, stressed, stupidly trying to be nice.

Buy the stuff, call her back, say I’m 4 mins away.
She says, “You probably won’t make it before the code expires.”
I’ve never used those cards before, she says it’s valid 5 mins only and it’s “written on the card.”
I check looks true. Panic hits. Don’t wanna lose the money.
She keeps saying she’s coming out, I give her the code.

You already know what happens next.
Arrive lights off, no one there. Fake address.
Call again blocked.

Lost 120 bucks, but that’s not even what hurts.
She played me, used my kindness and naivety.
Cops here don’t give a fuck about scams like this.

Lesson learned: don’t trust “I have a baby, help me” stories.
Kindness just makes you an easier target.

God will judge her.

>ask what money
>she says i called her 2 weeks ago in dire need of cash
>she fed half her savings into a bitcoin machine
>scam call center in ukraine behind it

Every place has people like that. You got off fucking lightly. The mistake was that you took the kindness too far - i mean what the fuck? Getting her a soda bottle would be fine, cigarette pack highly questionable, but paying 2500 Kč? You knew it in your heart that could not have been real. You exposed yourself to a monetary risk of roughly 2000% value of the pizza you were carrying dude.

Would you co-sign a loan for the next person?

Either terrible bait or genuinely mentally challenged.

Nah, I think I’m really mentally challenged

You should learn to trust your gut feelings more. Let this be a lesson.

If your job had been delivering pizza, why didn't you try to deliver the fucking pizza?
I can't believe you somehow forgot about the job you have and the way it is performed, just because someone threw you an odd request and then bullied you.

How do you expect me to believe that happened? In particular when the amount of money we're talking about seems to be a lot to you.

You know what, I'm going to the gas station now, no need to buy paysafe for someone, you don't need to persuade me for a long time, I'll send you the code right away.
