You Might Want to Duck This Scam

Have a great week ;-)

Thanks for the warning, Eileen. They look like quacks to me! :P

Thanks for the great giggle!

It quacks me up!!!!!!

So cute! I posted it on my facebook. My family teases me for being "up" on the current scams so...

Hi Eileen, Thank you for posting this, it's about time someone uncovered this scam. lol :-) Paula

giggles It's adorable. But after having a three year old try to open my husband's calf pocket in his cargo pants, I would take it seriously. Not that there was anything in that pocket. . .

So cute, and a surprise too!

We saw them at Notre Duck !

What fun you are Eileen. Thanks for the chuckle

DARNIT, EILEEN --- Do you have any idea how hard it was for me to to train those ducks!!!
(Back to the drawing board...sigh)

Whew! I'm glad I could help. These robber duckies must be stopped. Everyone, please keep an eye on your quackpacks. If you incur any damages from this scam, please make up an itemized bill. Sorry; I quack myself up! Elaine, try cats - mine are house-broken... litterly. Sorry; enough of these fowl jokes. I hope I haven't ruffled any feathers ;-)

I guess Uncle Scrooge forgot to include Donald, Huey, Dewey and Louie in his will.

An experience like that can fowl your whole trip.

This is similar to a scam I've been working called "Duck Duck Goose" but it looks like there's been a stool pigeon.

I can't help think what a shame there isn't honest work for them. My heart goes out when I see the youngsters literally eating their food off the ground. I've only been mugged once by them. After I gave the attacker my wallet, across the face, he left me alone.

They just want some bread...

Eileen You have me rolling on the floor and kicking my webbed feet in the air!! You're having a giraffe. It really kwakks me up. The distraction technique is an old and proven one so I'm not surprised by the youngsters but even the adult only looks a couple of years old. Who says crime doesn't pay...

gaggle, gaggle sorry, I can't stop laughing

Seeing her attacked by a gang like that makes you see the wisdom of a money belt. That would be a quacking idea.

So funny- thanks for laughs and all the puns you inspired!

I'm so glad this 'flock' appreciated this serious scam alert. I've enjoyed reading all of your posts. It's so nice not feeling like a duck out of water. ___(o)> (just cross your eyes a little...)

Too cute! Glad I didn't have my purse on me when I helped a scared mama duck and her 6 ducklings out of our yard a couple of weeks ago...

Loved it! At first I thought- she's gone quackers. Then wondered if it was a staged thing for an Afflac comercial.

The University of Oregon kicked them off the team for this kind of behavior on campus.

If caught, would a conviction result in a stew in jail?

Was this in Peking?

this is so on the mark. also, they could be 3 adults, one in front asking questions and the other two behind couple and trying to get into camera bags, backpacks. Saw this happening while we were on a tour bus infront of the Forum in Italy'

What Basil Fawlty might call " Duck Surprise " .

I know their type. I was approached by a gang like this in Bourton-on-the-Water in the Cotswolds. If they think you have a lot of bread, they'll follow you for blocks. I offered them some seeds, but I could tell they thought it was just chicken feed. If you are sitting on a bench by the river, and you ignore them, they will goose you in the behind. Be warned; these gangs in Bourton-on-the-Water are organized. They hold monthly meetings outside a cafe on the river, Panera Duck Bread.

They also will hide under the water lilies and if you look closely you might see them "peking out " ??
