Nowadays you see a lot of these types of incidents. I once went out for a walk and there was a family or maybe a group of 3 people a boy, a man and a woman who pretended to be a family IDK once asked me to gpay them some money because they wanted to go back to their village and had literally no money so out of sympathy i transferred them ₹300 cuz i genuinely thought they needed help... but a day later one of my friend also encountered a similar type of incident but this time it was a girl instead of the boy and i thought it must be a coincidence but few days later when I went for a walk again i encountered another group of 3 people asking for money and told the same story. That's when I realised maybe I was scammed.
