johnnyrose 12,654 Posted February 4, 2019 Share Posted February 4, 2019 not long ago I was at the crosswalk and some random chick walked up to me and asked/demanded to use my phone. I said no and crossed the street quickly. they were pretty annoyed about it. Honestly to me that’s just code for ‘hey, I’m about to snatch your shit.’The girl wasn’t in distress or anything either. Note. Would you?<3 *inspired by B16’s thread—https://onehallyu.com/topic/765862-do-you-let-other-people-use-your-phonecomputer/?do=findComment&comment=29760224 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bluebells and Snowdrops 3,573 Posted February 4, 2019 Share Posted February 4, 2019 Yeah, I would. I have been in need of borrowing another person’s cellphone before, and been very grateful when they allowed me to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HituKa 2,060 Posted February 4, 2019 Share Posted February 4, 2019 I always let them use it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Haze 10,915 Posted February 4, 2019 Share Posted February 4, 2019 Depends, if it's a kid or teen crying, even an adult in obvious distress, I'm going to try to help. I can usually pick apart the actors and shady folk though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

金彩媛 1,795 Posted February 4, 2019 Share Posted February 4, 2019 yeah but only if I'm the one holding the phone, I might refuse if the person looks extra fishy though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

silicon soul 19,457 Posted February 4, 2019 Share Posted February 4, 2019 No. I've heard stories of people running of with phones alone or as a group and one friend gave her phone to a stranger who dropped it, shattering the screen which she had to repair herself. If they really need help I will make the call on their behalf and put them on loud speaker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taemi 3,110 Posted February 4, 2019 Share Posted February 4, 2019 It happened to me once. I agree to help her because I would like someone to help me if I'm in need, but I refuse to give my phone. I kept holding it myself the all time as she dialled her number and talked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JNT-LEGGO 6,380 Posted February 4, 2019 Share Posted February 4, 2019 To make a quick call sure. Maybe I should be a bit more cautious though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sully 4,318 Posted February 4, 2019 Share Posted February 4, 2019 No. You can't trust people today anymore. Especially not with something as stealable as an expensive smartphone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eri-gom 3,736 Posted February 4, 2019 Share Posted February 4, 2019 Never, I don't give my phone to anyone, why I should to some strangers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
classiq 2,225 Posted February 4, 2019 Share Posted February 4, 2019 Yes, I have. Just recently last week. there was a bad snow storm and the lady's phone was dead, meanwhile she needed to contact her ride It's just best to use good judgement depending on each scenario Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SugaJam 3,634 Posted February 4, 2019 Share Posted February 4, 2019 Yes if they speak nicely and explain why they need it (most people do) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hormones. 886 Posted February 4, 2019 Share Posted February 4, 2019 No. It's just too risky, I don't know if the person has a knife or weapon and might try to rob me... I make sure I'm never in a position that I need someone else's phone either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tafattsbarn 6,152 Posted February 4, 2019 Share Posted February 4, 2019 No, i don't trust people like that. Maybe if it's an old lady and definitely if it's a child in distress, but otherwise no. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
harumaki 4,354 Posted February 4, 2019 Share Posted February 4, 2019 No, sadly, you can't trust anyone. Maybe if it's a child but I would hear their reasons first Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
