One of my friend got this Whatsapp message. It was about winning the TV out of some quiz and trivia. And they wanted her to pay the delivery feed in order to get the TV to the home delivered.

Winning the TV was the scam at first sight. Like without playing, without answering, without doing anything, you out of the blue won something.

God never gives you anything by miracle. Instead it does things only after your karma and the efforts. And you won such TV and got notified too.

Now you have to pay the delivery fee in order to get the TV delivered to your home. Okay so how much was it? So it was kind of like 600-1200 around amount based on the location.

Sounds too good to be true? Yes. Because nobody gives anything for free, they are just taking the money out of you. You have no way to find out who are they, when they send. It's just one action from your side.

So where was the issue? What caused all this drama?

Bait for Innocents who wish Miracles

You want something free without having to work for it. And that mindset in itself is going to cause an issue in your mind. Where you would want to win things using your luck.

You would be spending a lot of your time wishing for things to happen. And in that process you are going to become the bait. And people are going to be finding you to take advantage of you.

You suffer, if you play by those people

If you meet some of such scam, ignore them. Never play by their rules. If you listen to what those rules say you are going to end up suffering. You won't be left aloone. They will chase you. And that in a process is going to cause you a lot of issues.

Avoid this type of the suffering. You have to learn to let go of the wrong things. And that in itself is going to be helping you push ahead in life. So find out what you can do and avoid such type of the baits.

Nothing is Free

You have to understand one important thing. Nothing is free in life. Your life every small step that you take, there is a cost to the same. And so you have to learn to avoid freebies. Because if they were from god, they come without conditions.

And god does not ask you to pay delivery fee so that it can reach you. let's face it good things come to you without any strings attached. So ignore such offers that come to you.

Have you came across such type of scams?

I have seen a lot of scams lately so thought I should share about them. And by letting you know about them, I get to aware you guys. And who knows you guys can save yourself from such issues too.

How do you avoid such type of scams?

We have lots of scams here. Some of them have shops in malls preying on those gullible enough to buy their products. They say they have won a free massage chair for example but in order for you to avail that you have to buy more expensive appliances.

This is really a scam dear. Now a days, you can't have anything for free. Even a candy has its price.
