Its basically spam IRL.

not stolen, but 100% fake shitty stuff. this happens all the time at colleges, they prey on young people and the stupid.

basically, make fake speakers, AV equipment, TVs etc. and slap on name brand logos on them. they often lie and say they were already paid for or "fell off the truck" or some other lie and need to get rid of them and get back to work.

IF IT SEEMS TO GOOD TO BE TRUE, IT IS!

I used to live right by the freeway 10 mins from downtown LA but in a residential area.

Stolen big rig trucks would get dumped outside my house all the time, empty of course.

Also, the local Lowe's over here, one of the managers was selling barbeques and things under the table. Those big awesome stainless steel outdoor grill things, like $100. I guess the managers don't make much there. That was some inside stealing though. lol :1orglaugh

Usually stolen but from time to time its the cops looking to make a bust. its as illegal to buy stolen property as it is to take or sell it.

My brother was offered a job doing it in London years ago. They had a massive warehouse with vans going out daily. It seemed to be very profitable.

It's all part of the Zionist conspiracy, good thing your brother didn't get involved.

I'm not an attorney but i'm fairly certain a police officer can't actively go out and try to hustle "stolen" merchandise to strangers.

Even when I visited Cuba they were doing that with Cigar's attempting to sell a box usually worth 150$ for 20$ - I just go by the rule - if it sounds too good to be true, usually is.

WOW! Can you turn into superman by walking into a phone booth too? LOL

In my defense, i've never had this happen to anyone I know. I'm 5'9", 230 pounds, can bench 405 pounds with ease, deadlift 500 pounds with ease and squat 500 pounds with ease. I've got a long history in martial arts, boxing and kickboxing. I'm very quick to shut these people down and tell them to get the fuck away from me.

I personally think I'm an odd person to approach for something like this. Maybe its just that i dress very casually and usually in workout clothes and come off as being pretty relaxed. Maybe I just look like a sucker and lack a certain degree of self awareness :)

But only today did I actually start wondering what they are actually doing and got curious about it. This was the first time where it was clear they were pretty organized... brand new Escalade, clean cut, wearing matching shirts from an audio store, polished story, well pitched, paperwork etc.

At least now I know this is basically a free ticket to bitch slap someone if i'm having an off day... then again, I guess that's why they are always in pairs.

My point was simply that I'm an odd choice to try to fuck over. That said, sort of... I use my green lantern ring to will anything I want to happen. That could include causing a phone booth to appear and causing me to be wearing a superman costume. Not sure that I could do the black hair with the curl in front or dimples, but I could try for you of that's what turns you on.
