Swindling Innocent Motorists Out Of Money
The viral posting has prompted netizens to warn others about scams involving fake road accidents.
They urged the public to make a report to the police immediately if they’ve encountered a similar incident.
Others condemn the scammer as his act is not only irresponsible but also poses a serious threat to road users.
As most vehicles have dashboard cameras attached, such a trick does not work nowadays.
Nevertheless, it is always better not to argue or have any physical contact with these scammers.
