Has anyone ever tried to scam you and failed/ or unfortunately they won?

Someone tried to pickpocket me and I backhanded him but he ran off. Scared me to death. (not really a scam but, yeah)

Guy told me an elaborate story that boiled down to him needing $10 more to get a locksmith (he locked himself out of his car, he said). 
I forget the details, but it was painfully obvious he was lying, so I told him to break his window.

Every time you download Garry's Mod illegally, Garry makes a bug.

When people ask me "Plz" because its shorter than "Please" I feel perfectly justified to answer "No" because its shorter than "Yes".

Thank you Marie for the sprite.

I spent $200 on a bass once, and got ripped off on it as it stopped working a week later. It wasn't until recently I had to fix it myself.

You live outside the US and ship form the US, that's normal. Nearly.
I ordered an Ozzy hoodie a while ago... took MOOONTHS I can't remember exactly how many but by the end of it at least 6 months. That was shipped from the US too I believe... can't remember... may also have been from Europe though so idk.

Also...
Jman's got a nice TF2 tale or two for sure.

I spent like 350 dollars on a bass. Man, I got screwed sooo hard. It's a really shitty bass. Shitty in relation of money:quality, of course. It sounds okay.
