Trickster on the loose

Date:

Share post:

THERE IS a man who works in a St Michael area near to two roundabouts, two schools and two funeral homes, who is walking around targeting older women for sex and money.
He selects women between the age of 50 and 60 who live or frequent this particular area, and usually ends up scamming them out of their money and other possessions.
This slick trickster presents himself in a very polite and mannerly manner to get the attention of these women. He asks to borrow $200, after which he ups the ante. He even likes to beg for a BlackBerry for his daughter.
Ladies are being asked to be on the lookout for this guy, who also likes to ask for non-alcoholic wine to drink. It is only when these poor women try to get back the money which he has borrowed that they realize they have been played, since he disappears just like Houdini.
 
Money pastor
The congregation at a certain church are beginning to get very suspicious of their pastor, who likes to speak with a strong accent.
They want to know why he is insisting that members of the congregation put oil, water or pictures of their loved ones at the altar if they want to receive an anointing.
They also want to know why he keeps preaching that they must contribute a big, generous offering, if they want to receive ten times the blessings with financial breakthroughs.
They also want to know why he is distributing envelopes with the words “Financial Breakthroughs” written on them, and telling people to place $250 in the envelope along with five material things that they want, so that their wishes can be granted.
The congregation did not find it very funny recently when he asked them to take out their $100, $50 and $20 bills and place the money above their heads while he prayed over the money.
The problem is the money fell into a basket which he had placed in the middle of the floor, which he then took to a back room, suddenly announced that he had somewhere to go and sped off in his vehicle, leaving his apostles behind to continue praying.
This man preaches sweetly and loves to quote chapter and verse, but the congregation wants to know what he is doing with all the financial blessings he has been receiving from them.
 
Money gone
AN?INVESTIGATION?has been launched into the disappearance of over $27 000 from a certain office.
But people are asking why a particular employee who handles the money has only been transferred.
They want to know if her close affiliation with the head honcho has guaranteed her immunity from the investigation.
 
Workers blue over red
PEOPLE?from a much?respected organization were not impressed with the changing of the colour of their ceremonial uniform to red.
In fact, they were very embarrassed to be on the parade square since they came out looking similar to fire officers.
Now they are asking if the uniform was changed so a certain individual, who loves to be in the spotlight on such occasions, could stand out more in the huge crowd.
They also want to know who approves the changing of the uniform and who comes up with the design since theirs has been changed about four times already.
As far as the employees are concerned, the money being used to change their uniforms so often could be better utilized in improving their working conditions.
