CON MAN?? OR CONCERN SAMATRIAN??

I was driving near the back of Muzium Negara (Jalan travers??), two Indian on a motorbike was pointing at my tire. Cos I just got a tire puncture and worried that tire puncture again. So I put on emergency light and stop on a safe place, a little far from where the two guy pointing at my type. Finding tire ok, I walk back to the my driver side of the door, then the two man drive by and stop in front of me. The one sitting at the back come down from the motorbike and walk to the passenger side and told me that they saw smoke coming from my tire and believe that my brake pump might be malfunction.

Being a little naïve and in a rush, I walk over and that guy pointed at the type and say look at the patch oil and thin smoke (thinner than a smoking cigarette maybe) and told me that the small red patch of oil is from my brake pump.

My doubtful mind kick in and I told him that is ok; I will send my car to mechanic. He replied you could send you car to a nearby store. But I rejected that and lied to him saying this car belong to my mechanic and my car is at the workshop, and so I left the scene.

And after that I check my brake oil is gold (not Red) in color, and the oil level is still at the full level.

Question hasn’t been answer is: -

1. Is my oil pump having problem (which high percentage is not), I will send to mechanic for checking just in case.
2. Is the two is trying to con me, how do we stop them from conning others??

The two guy are wearing a short sleeve navy blue jacket with “shell” wording at the back, but I forgot to take down the motorbike number.


Update

ANYWAY, I JUST HAVE MY CAR CHECK BY TRUSTED MECHANIC, NO LEAKING - NOT BRAKE NOR ANY OTHER OIL LEAK. (yes i am shouting so that everyone know what happen).

CONMAN ALERT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
