This is to warn my nairaland peeps, seems this season as Christmas is drawing closer people are very desperate and will do anything to lay their hands on some money, whether legal or illegal.

Here's what happened to me today, I headed to town to go get my drivers licence done, considering my old one will expire in a few days time. Anyways, I was low on fuel and decided to stop at a filling station to top up. While at the station there was a cue and a lot of hustler with keg. So I waited patiently for my turn. When there was just 2 cars before my turn, this guy came out of nowhere and was doing this traffic control. He was so interested in clearing space for "ME" to buy. I thought to myself, why is this guy taking panadol for other people's headache na, I looked back to see if he had a car but it didn't seem so. So I just shrugged it off, I was like watin concern me.
When it got to my turn, I picked 3.5k from d bunch I had and left the remaining 17k (for licence) in the compartment below the handle u hold-on to close the car from inside. I came down and went to open the tank door for the attendant, while i was at this the guy went through the other side and opended the passenger door reached over and picked the money. The car is a mini van and has tinted glass, the end was noisy from all the hustlers and horns and all.
I only realised when i had driven some few meters, the door light was on.

This is to warn my various nairaland people, you guys should be on alert, people are desperate. How he knew I had money, it still beats me.
Seasons greetings.
