There are a bunch of guys at a clothes store. Once a week, they give away clothes for free to the needy. One day, a guy comes in and convinces/tricks/persuades them to give the clothes to him – making it fully clear that he’ll be selling these clothes off for personal gain, and they agree.

If these people were naive enough to fall for it, it doesn’t make him innocent. It’s our job to stand up and explain why it’s wrong – and why he shouldn’t have done this in the first place.
