'Scams'

Good Evening, or whatever is the best greeting to you, in your part of the world!

The coffee hit the spot this am! Am a wee bit stiff! LOL! Once again, am grateful that my friend helped me yesterday! (You can refer to yesterday's post, if you wish a bittidz background!)

Last night, both Alan and I fell thankfully and wearily into our bed; and it felt like a 'Friday night'. Watched an interesting movie, re: a love story in Guilin, China. I have been to Guilin; and the scenery is breathtaking!

We are glad it is the weekend, as it has been a 'full' week! Earlier today, I was following through with 'directions' to access certain data online, as suggested by a friend of ours (who obviously, was not aware of the tactics). Well, BEWARE! There are 'hooks' and 'hidden agendae', and what is suggested re: a 'FREE' service online, is NOT! Everything comes with a tid of a price (which I can appreciate - but, to a tidbitz point; and I was querying 'their' bittid M.O.) I sent a fiesty yet diplomatic response to 'those in question'; as it appears not to have been presented with integrity, as per their 'words, actions, and deeds.'

Then I telephoned 'these' same people' (yes, there is a number!) and a) was able to get through and b) the person (I gently told him nothing 'personal') - he was extremely quick to 'cancel' my 'membership?'; and at the same time, was most 'curt'; so I Prayed for 'Grace' and 'Words of Wisdom' in dealing with this 'issue'. It was as if 'I had done something wrong' (and I was the first to offer that I am 'no computer guru; and that I may have pressed the incorrect buttons; and to accept my apologies'). He took no notice of my comments; save to behave in a 'holier than thou' manner towards me.(Maybe there were some 'buttons pushed?'). Have found from experiences, that 'those' that may be 'guilty', do their best to insinuate, put one down, and then 'run away' (like a fish caught on a hook) asap from dialogue / communication altogether! Perhaps some of you, have encountered such tidbit 'moments!' By the tid way, am not knocking our friend who gave us the bit suggestion; it is a 'company', promoting their 'free' online service. Think again!

Tidbit - Live each day at a time; and learn from ALL situations. Good or otherwise. Out of 'bad', comes GOOD, I always hope! Do your best to be positive and upbeat on a daily basis; and keep things simple, as well as remembering steadfastedly, to "Praise Him In ALL Things'.

Bittid - There are 'times' when one needs to take a 'stand for what is right and just!' The saying: 'Slow to boil"; is a sage one; however, if 'something does not ring true', methinks, one should speak up for the TRUTH of the matter! Also, Ask Him for His Guidance, as it does make things a lot simpler.

Today has been a 'special' tid learning curve for me; and eventhough my 'Norsk Viking blood' ultimately "boiled", I asked Him at the same bit time, to help me have a 'Calm' and a 'Confidence' to resolve this most unethical matter. I KNOW He Helped me address this challenge, and I am very Thankful for His Clarity.

Hope this is of encouragement to some of you, who have been poorly treated or taken advantage of by 'scams'.

God Bless.
