Talk about sneaky. A friend was telling me how he (almost) got conned into getting an insurance policy from some barstid posing as a promo guy giving away free vacations. So he was minding his own business, my friend was, when from out of nowhere comes this guy telling him he was qualified for an overnight stay in some hotel in Tagaytay. I suppose at this point you could argue that it was as much my friend’s fault as it was Mr. Con-nery’s, but let’s keep at it. So he has my buddy fill out a “registration” form that turned out to be several requests for life insurance quotes. Granted, there was no money involved, the false pretense, in my mind, still qualifies what transpired as garden-variety thievery.
