"Hello, ....Rumana, " The deep manly voice asked over the phone
"Yeah" I Answered
I'm calling from federal service funding department, and you been chosen to get 7 thousand dollar...."
"Do you know why you won?"
"Because I'm underage" I guessed
"Ohhh, how old are you"
I answered "17"
"Oh, you sound very young......."
I nodded as to what I should answer as I kept checking the time
It's was two minutes before margrib, the day when I won 25$ gift card to target after winning the breast cancer awareness at school,
"CZ303, is your activation code, call the number I gave you and they will you assist you with the rest, hurry, don't be late " The voice faded away after a while.
I was happy as a clown, I can't believe I won 7,000 dollar,
I dropped the phone and quickly prayed Margib which was passing
I tone in the second number to gain my 7,000 as I celebrated it with my family
A another guy answer with the name of Mark, and I told him about me getting chosen to win the seven thousand dollar but he told me I have to register first so I don't get taxed by the government. In order to do it I have to buy a iTunes Card $15-$500 and upload $250 which is my tax fees.
He didn't ask for any code and I thought maybe that' comes last. With a idiotic, useless brain of mine, I followed all the instructions, after I convinced my cousin to drive me to the stores. I hang up couple of time and call back again and the same person-- Mark-- answered the phone
He provide me all his time as if I'm the only customer he needs to worry about
He stayed in line when I moved around from Family Dollar to CBS Pharmacy
Which was really far from my house
I really didn't care of anything else, I took all my savings which wasn't close to $250 and hurried out with excitement
I finally found iTunes card with $15-$500 and went to check out
"Don't tell them the reason your buying the card for, or they will charge with extra fees, just say , it's for your personal use" Mark kept repeating it to me
"But I don't have the entire amount, I only got $210" I counted my cash
"It's alright, let me talk to the bank and see what we can do"
I was really a dummy and believed him
I handed the card to the cashier, she was whites and short but a Muslim, her head cover with a white hijab
She looked at me and back at the card
"Are you buying this card for yourself"
I nodded and quickly added
"Yeah, it's for my personal use"
I kept making mistake of counting the wrong amount of money
"Are you guys by chance getting scam,--they call you and say to put this much amount of money in a card because you won a certain amount......." The lady spoke as it finally hit me
"I GOT SCAMMED " I pull the phone to my ear
"Are you by chance scamming me, you guys are fraud , your trying to fool and take my money" I spoke betrayed as hell
He stumbled over his words and answered "no, who told you"
I snap the phone shut and grab my money
"What happened" Cousin asked
I glance at the cashier
"It was, wasn't it, they scammed you, your got hacked"
"How did you know" I asked felling so dumb less
"That's their techniques, I'm seen it before couple of times already"
I thanked her and walked out the store
Allah saved me by sending this kind lady and waking me up from those devil douche dogs
"Rumana, why did you hang up" Mark called again
"F**** bitches, you scammed me, you guys are scammers and I got fool by it. You all are shit face jerks, fuck you bitch" I slap it shut and hit my head
Wow, what an idiot I am, because of Allah's will I got save by the lady from this bastard mother fuckers
Even though there were lots of hints Allah gave me to figure it out I wasn't intelligent enough to solve it
