I was approached by three average looking teenagers while filling my car up with gas today. They wanted me to buy some home speakers that they had gotten for free. Their story was that their boss put the speakers into their van for delivery accidentally. So they intended to sell them.
I told them that I wasn't interested. I'm more than happy to pay extra for things like "legal", "warranty" and "service."
They saw my skydiving license plate holder and said that they'd been. They weren't lying and had been to Thomaston so I invited them out to the dropzone for some jumps.
If they show up they'll have to prove to me that they're legit.
I couldn't figure out what their scam was, but I know that it was there. Maybe the boxes were empty. Maybe they were stolen. Maybe something else.
