Q: A person selling a bar of gold approached you.

The person says it is pure gold

and showed you a shining, gold-colored metal bar. He gave you a price and will
turn over you the gold bar if you would give him the money.
Answer: I will humble declined or think twice because what he/she is offering is
expensive and the lack of credible sources and information hinders me on buying that
gold bar and lastly the person is unknown to me.
Q: Somebody came out in the media accusing another person to be a crook.
Answer: Should not believe immediately on the accuser because there is still no formal
hearing occurred, the information proposed by the accuser should only be believed if a
formal investigation happened and that the evidence is proved only by a professional
investigator.
