Swine swindler

I was not having a very good day today. I was being swindled. I was on my way back home from my weekly networking meeting. When I passed these 2 indian guys and one of them happen to casually mentioned something to me as he walked pass, and it was the bait. I thought he said something like, "You look very (open)..." or something and that was all it took. I stopped and turned to him and said, "Excuse me?" And before I know it, he started selling off his belief and mentioned that he teaches Yoga and would like to read my fortune. I was like, "Uh huh (WEIRDO!)" He said my chakra was open and I got a very good eyes and I should not worried too much. I will be a millionaire, he said. He was about to pull me to a corner, when I told him that I got to go for a meeting. And then and there I should just walk away, but there's a feeling of decency in me to just stop a bit and listen to his reply before you walk off from people. At the same time, I felt that as though he's going to scream at me or something. I was feeling uncomfortable. Very much so. He said he's some holy people, he believes in Yoga. And he wrote me something in a piece of paper and gave it to me, I was like, yeah... give it to my hand that's holding a piece of tissue, so I can throw it away at the same time. And then as I was ready to leave, he said, "Pick a number below 9." I said, "7" And he said that he knew it and said to open the paper that he gave me earlier. Tcheah... Lucky guess. I think most either pick 7 or 8. But at that time, I should just walk away instead he open his pocket book, showing off his Ganesha or whoever is in there and start saying that he's some holy man and roughly speaking, "Give me your money." At first I claimed that I don't have cash with me. (I got $30 in my wallet) and he kept on prodding and at that moment for some reason I froze like an idiot and give him $10 just to brush him off. He saw that I have more. What a devil!!! He cleaned me up and still ask for more saying that with my big fortune, I got to pay for it. I don't know why I can't just be a jerk and told him off the first time. I DON'T EVEN BELIEVE IN YOUR MUMBO JUMBO!!! GET AWAY FROM ME YOU SATAN! Darn. I think I forgot to equip myself with my faith. Oh well, you know what. I believe that God can understand and some good will come out from all these. Hopefully that loser didn't use it to buy drugs (don't seem the type, but maybe some Holy hashis can slip thru the system).

And this is the e-mail that I wrote to my boss:

I don’t know what I got myself into… I think this headache really messed me up. I was being swindled today. As I was trying to get home, some Indian guy, introduced himself as some holy man, and although I already said I have a meeting to go to etc, he managed to get $30 from me, just because he said that I will be rich soon (the process was more complicated than just saying that I’m getting rich soon). He did some trick that predict my lucky number and other stuff, and silly me, I should have just walked away rather than have him see my palms, showed me his gods photos, etc. I SHOULD HAVE JUST WALKED AWAY. I felt like I have a mark in my forehead saying GULLIBLE. I don’t believe at whatever he’s saying, but there’s this feeling of ‘Paiseh’ when he asked me for my money. I felt as though he’s going to scream or do something bad to me if I don’t give him my money. It was an empty road, although it’s open/ next to heavy traffic. Good thing I’ve spent the better part of it for BNI. I’m really pissed at myself now and rather than healed, my headache grew.

I don't want to go against whatever religion, but seriously, this is not religious at all. You just don't ask money from people that you just 'help'. If your 'god' is really that powerful, you should get a better commission from this god, rather than getting meager change from poor victims like me. You don't scare people to get money... Or you're just the same as any swindler... SWINES! I think this is really the work of the Devil. No matter what form of religion he wants to mask himself in. Chakras, my butt.
