Today, I witnessed an elderly lady getting mugged. I ran over to the guy mugging her and offered him the money in my wallet in return for him leaving her alone. The old lady snatched my money and ran away with the mugger. What the hell just happened? FML

Sounds like you've been scammed.

Have you not learnt by reading FML the elderly are not to be trusted. :$

you can't trust anybody anymore, besides yourself

you've been mugged!

Hope that old bitch dies early.

It's admirable OP wanting to help. However, offering your money in exchange for hers was completely illogical. Even if the lady had been an actual victim the mugger would have likely just taken both your money and her money. Depending on the situation (weapon visible, size of mugger vs OP, etc) the smarter thing to do would have been to either just call the police (what I'd recommend) or maybe hit the mugger from behind (with a weapon if possible) so he doesn't get the chance to draw any weapon he may have. I probably wouldn't recommend confronting the mugger face to face though unless you're more likely than not to come out on top (ie you're trained in hand to hand combat or a sniper with a gun in your hand).
