    This is an event that happened about ten years ago.   On the face of it, it seems straight forward, but is it?

    A bank was robbed, the robbers made off with the contents of the vault.   The employees, who had b […]

    • I think insurance companies have a ceiling as to how much should be paid to a bank in case it is robbed. Usually, they make the ceiling of how they can pay only according to the amount that was agreed in the policy according to how much premium also they have paid for it.

      That kind of robbery also happened here in our city. I was also an employee in a bank then. One of the banks were robbed before lunch time. All the employees were all made to drop on the floor. . All the customers were made to lie on the floor, head down. When a pregnant woman can’t lay head facing down well , she was kicked in the butt

      The manager, cashier and the employees were all locked inside the vault.

      When the robbers were gone, they shouted at that small hole in the vault where it is really made for that.

      Officers from the other bank were made to open the vault by telling them the combinations. They changed the combinations after that.

    • In this case, the manager had been embezzeling money from the bank. This is why the numbers didn’t match.

    • So true. There are so many scammers on the internet. If one would be so naive, he can be the next victim.

    • With all the cyber crimes being done nowadays, one should really be discerning when on social media. It is just so easy for another person to open an account using a fictitious name or a true name that belongs to a person and whose picture is that person’s.

      That’s why for my protection, I chose to be one a private setting in social media. I only accept friends who are relatives, family and acquiantances that I like.

      That way, no one can cyber bully me.

      • When that first person came on, spewing information, it was done as a ‘hook’ to get others to fall for it. That’s why you have to be so careful

    • I don’t understand, but was he released already or was still in jail? If he was a heinous criminal then why did they release him again.

      Now, he is on the loose and has made that bombing again.

      Imagine he is now 67 and has been jailed for quite sometime, yet he still hasn’t changed. He is still a terrorist.

      I wonder if he is really a human being.

      • He is in jail; this ‘new’ charge has come up. And they want to charge him again. But he is in jail.

    • Honey is a superfood. It can last for so long without getting spoiled. Honey made by bees who feed on nectars of flowers are the best than those who feed the bees with sugar.

    I think 22 cents is the maximum one can earn through it. And more if the post has comments. With each comment reply you may have higher cents added to it. But do note that some of the time It’s better to keep writing and then focus on other things. That always works better for some of us. I have yet to earn more than 22 cents from one post. But…[Read more]

    I managed to write 3 posts for 1 week last week and before. But it was kind of draining for my body and brain. And I think that’s one reason I just have to slow down on 1 post a day and more on the comment and the post. So it may be taking a lot of my time for now. I may have to try other ways to get engaging. For better I guess commenting is the…[Read more]

    • To besafe, do not give so much information about yourself on strangers on the net. As I mentioned in my post, scammers can easily hide behind their keyboards. The unsuspecting victim might be easily be fooled if he would not investigate first before agreeing with a stranger on the net.

    • That’s so funny. It’s been happening to me ever since I started receiving mail. I’ve been getting mail delivered to me addressed “Mr.” for as long as I can remember. Getting on the Internet didn’t change anything. What’s odd is that even with my picture online, I still get called “sir” or “mister”. 🙂

      • Are you getting messages from Russian hotties?

        • I can’t remember if they were Russian. But when I get them it makes me laugh! I have in my memory a cartoon I once saw where two animals were sitting in front of a computer and one is telling the other: “Don’t worry. On the Internet they don’t know you’re a dog!” 🙂
