    A young girl (22 ish) knocked at my door and said she was selling books so she could go to Australia. The books my wife and I bought were in cash and donated to a school. We got two receipts, one for our taxes and one for our personal keeping. The longer it sits with me the more and more I feel I was scammed. Anyone else ever had this experience?

    I've done this before, got all my money back through taxes. As long as you have the receipt you should be ok.

    Yes, you likely were scammed. Hopefully the young girl was cute and gave you a rise.

    She wanted to go 'down under', and you missed the sign.
