I saw a fellow gaijin on the street begging for change.
I wasn't in any hurry, so I grabbed a seat at the nearby Starbucks to watch him for a bit and see what was up.
After a couple of hours, he got up, walked down some the side street so I followed, and saw as he hopped into a Volvo with embassy plates.
I tapped on the window before he drove off.
"I saw what you were doing," I told him. "Taking advantage of naïve people and stealing their hard-earned money."
"Ja," he replied. "Och vad i helvete ska du göra åt det?"
Of all the people to run into... a Scamdinavian.
