Post # 3 - Fraud



When I think about other people is enjoying at the expenses of your effort, making believe you are helping a sick person with the hopefulness that maybe you could save a life but everything was not true, my first feeling is indignation.  Unfortunately, in my country exists plenty of fraudulent cases like impersonation, identity theft, bank fraud, employment fraud, ghost business, duplicate documents illegally, deceive about a close relative is in a trouble with the police or kidnapped and counterfeit money.  The last modality, it is the most common.  I remember, when I was studying in high school, me and my classmates organized an event (selling food) to collect money for our trip at the end of the school.  After a long day of work, we realized a counterfeit bill, we couldn't believe it, somebody deceived us, it was a big hit, because the value of that bill was the half of all the sell, we felt really disappointed. Actually, the police is still working to knock off all kind of fraud many times with good result but still exist, so when we receive exchange in other places that is not from the bank, we always have to check carefully before put into the wallet.

  1. That would have been difficult to deal with after working hard and trying to raise money, only to discover that counterfeit money.

  2. We were so upset at that moment, but that didn't stop us. we kept working because we were a really good team and hard workers. That is something that I always remember. In good or bad situations, we were always together.
