    You might laugh at those magic beans now, but you could probably trick a dim farmer into giving you his cow for them!

    If they're suffering with a terminal illness, some people need to put their faith into something, regardless how flimsy.

    A "heads up" for you and any of your friends who may be regular customers at Headford Road Shopping Centre.
    Over the last month I became the victim of a clever scam whilst out shopping.

    Simply going out to get some bits and pieces has turned out to be quite traumatic. Don't be naive enough to think it couldn't happen to you.

    Here's how the scam works: Two seriously good looking 18 or 19 year old girls come over to your car as you are loading your stuff into the boot. They both start wiping your windshield with a rag and Windolene with their cleavage almost falling out of their skimpy T-shirts. It is impossible not to look. When you thank them and offer them a tip, they say "No" and instead ask you for a lift to Terryland shopping centre.
    You agree and they get in the back seat.

    On the way, they start having sex with each other. Then one of them climbs over into the front seat and performs oral sex on you, while the other one steals your wallet.

    I had my wallet stolen on August; 4th, 9th, 10th, twice on the 15th, 17th,20th, three times just yesterday, and very likely again this upcoming weekend as soon as I can buy some more wallets.

    Please pass this message on to all the men you know to warn them about this scam.

    Most FB scams are Irish Water related.

    i.e. writing NO CONTRACT on your bill and shoving it up your arse ~ 8,457 likes

    Shame I can only thank this once........:D
