Ran into a New Scam today

[Blackstar]

Bringing this thread back to life.

 

By the way, I did eventually get reimbursed for all my points. I now have just over $5000 in Crappy Tire points....

 

Anyways..... I'm walking out of the Dorking Market on 86 hwy the other day and I see a couple people talking in the parking lot, I ignore and walk to my truck across the road. 2 guys jump in a black SUV and drive over to me.

"Hey buddy"

I thought I knew the one guy, looked familiar. So I say, "Hey what's up?"

He says "I got something to show you." We walk to the back of the SUV and he opens the hatch.

He says " I just got this 8k projector and screen from work. It came in a shipment but wasn't in the order. The boss gave it to me. Are you interest?"

I laughed "I can't believe you guys are still pulling this shit. No Thanks. Good luck fishing."

I got back in my truck and they moved over to the next guy to pull in the lot.

 

I can't believe this shit still goes on.

Ttt

 

What the hell is going on with these phone scammers? 
 

Since the Covid restrictions have lifted, the scammers are back out in full force and I think they have drastically multiplied. Since early December I’ve been getting at least 3-4 calls per week. And in the last 2 weeks, up to 3 calls per day.

It’s driving me nuts. I have a business line and I need to answer my phone.

2 more calls this afternoon after posting above.

That makes 5 for today. New high score.
