Never trust strangers. That is something most of us were taught by our parents or guardians at an early stage of our life, especially if the stranger says he is a sorcerer who can turn you invisible whilst you rob a bank!
Unfortunately, for one man in Iran, he made the mistake of trusting a fake sorcerer who convinced him that he was invisible and could rob a bank safely. The man explained to the court that he had paid five million rials (just under £290) to a wizard imposter, who in return gave him a set of spells to tie to his arm. The fake sorcerer explained to him that the spells would make him invisible, and that he could then rob banks all he wanted.
The mans ill-fated attempt to rob the bank started to go wrong after he entered the bank and started randomly snatching money from the hands of customers, before they decided to act quickly and overpower the thief.
The man told the court, I made a mistake. I understand now what a big trick was played on me.

Remind me - does Iran have nukes yet? (Shudder.)
The main problem with this plan, if he’d thought about it, is how to turn the money invisible. It wouldn’t look good if a pile of cash was apparently floating out of the bank on its own.
Florida, your move! :)
You are right. I figure the fake sorcerer must have seen him coming. 😁🤣😆
Seems taken right out of the idiotic quran.
Exactly, used wrong spell.
An invisibility cloak would have covered not only himself, but the money too.
He does have that special "look" about him.....
Which goes to prove an old saying:
Always...Always background check your wizards before using their spells!
The mystery man got nervous and he fidget around a bit
He reached in the pocket of his mystery robe
And he whipped out a shaving kit
Now I thought it was a razor
And a can of foaming goo
But he told me right then when the top popped open
There was nothin’ his box won’t do
With the oil of aphrodite, and the dust of the grand wazoo
He said you might not believe this, little fella
But it’ll cure your asthma too
I bought some magic beans from that dude.
Yes, this clearly wasnt very well thought out
How are they sure that the wizard is a fake and just not very good at it?
The source is called “Factual Facts”...so it must be true.
Wrong defense.
Shouldn’t he be telling that court he was only trying to rob infidels?
