RE: A Sign Of The Times, Getting Robbed?

Unfortunately, if you had given him the money it is highly unlikely you would see the guy again. It's a common scam that usually involves drugs. :( At the end of the day, once the cash has been taken from your bag it has no value to the person who has taken it so hopefully he will have discarded it somewhere public and you can be reunited with your stone. Don't give up hope - even if it takes a little while, things do have a habit of finding their way back to you. Maybe it could be an idea to print up a leaflet briefly explaining the personal value - and then stick it up in a couple of local areas. You never know, generally there are far more good people than bad out there. X

Yeah, I'm glad I didn't have any money to give him, because yeah it was a scam. But I can see how someone might, when they feel desperate. Yeah I think I will put up a few flyers, I know it is out there waiting to come back to me. Thanks @perceptualflaws xxx
