Anyone walking over and offering to help me with pumping the gas would raise red flags for me immediately, so I don’t think I’d fall for it. But it amazes me that these crooks are so ingenious.

The White House has begun construction on a UFC fighting cage on its South Lawn ahead of next month's event to celebrate 250 years of American independence.
