Viral Video - An airport officer shared a video warning good Samaritans out there to never hold anything from strangers you meet at airports. Why? Let's just say you could end up in very perilous situations.

"Be careful!! At the airport or close to any customs service, never accept or help somebody to hold his/her bottle of water or other objects, even for an elderly person or a pregnant woman, You could be arrested for cocaine or illegal drugs possession," the video caption reads. "In Singapore/Dubai, that means the Death Penalty!! Tell them to put the item on the floor or at any other place... Cocaine dealers are very smart."

The 14-second clip titled, "Beware - Never Help Others at Airport by Holding Water Bottle," has now over 400,000 views. Some viewers said the video was pretty informative while for others its "stupid" since passing water bottles through airport security is tougher than passing drugs.

"Crafty, but you can't get passed security with a water bottle," a viewer commented.

So, what do you think of this viral video? Informative or stupid?
