Western OAP Scammers on the run!

This is where our community discusses almost anything! While we're mainly a Cambodia expat discussion forum and talk about expat life here, we debate about almost everything. Even if you're a tourist passing through Southeast Asia and want to connect with expatriates living and working in Cambodia, this is the first section of our site that you should check out. Our members start their own discussions or post links to other blogs and/or news articles they find interesting and want to chat about. So join in the fun and start new topics, or feel free to comment on anything our community members have already started! We also have some Khmer members here as well, but English is the main language used on CEO. You're welcome to have a look around, and if you decide you want to participate, you can become a part our international expat community by signing up for a free account.

Plenty of gullible people out there; that is why the Nigerian economy hasn't tanked yet.
Having morals is such a flaw lol
I wonder what the OP is feeling right now. His big 'reveal' of the scammers and their tactics has fallen flat on it's face and the only revelation is just how dumb the he has been. There is zero sympathy.

He doesn't seem to see the causal link with people like him and low grade scammers. Without the hopelessly credulous these scammers would starve to death.
Think he expected people taking the piss and stating things that is now obvious to him but the point is of course to smear the scammers names, make them known to the public and make sure noone else get scammed. Not to make some bored alcoholic on CEO leave nice comments.

I stumbled into Mr. William Dean Wendel in Phnom Penh 172 Street and had a casual chat.....He spoke about a million-dollar deal coming in and would consider giving me 10,000$ to trade with. .....asked me if I could help him out with 600$ to get by.
That's some dumb shit. How the hell do people ever get money together if they are that gullible? How come they don't just get all their candy stolen every time they go outside? :?
They don't get their candy stolen because they give it away.

They get suckered because they say, and they have the mentality, that not all are bad. Nice (gullible) people need to consider all are bad. Problem is they don't seem to know they are gullible.

Maybe they have had success in the past.

If someone talks to you in a pub, don't respond. Consider that rude because they don't know if you are there for some peace and quiet, to be left alone, due to something shitty just having happened, like, let's say, been ripped off. Again!

If the slug is above his mouth, it does have a housing problem. He would have a few himself. Bad 'tashe it is.

It is also equal to about 14.5 kilos, which is a big head
