Motorhome sales scam!
« on: April 02, 2014, 06:25:59 PM »

Noticed this motorhome for sale and was surprised at such a low price.

Looks remarkably similar to this one eh! but with a more realistic price.

Pricing error or a scam similar to this one?

Your all wrong!  I got in touch with the owner and he is currently working offshore on an oil rig but will get his Brother in law to drop off the vehicle once he receives payment via bank transfer  ;D

I know........... :-[ :-[ :-[
I got scammed.

Over the last month I have become a victim of a clever 'Eastern European' scam whilst out shopping.
Simply dropping into Bunning's supermarket for a bit of shopping turned out to be quite an experience. Don't be naive enough to think it couldn't happen to you or your friends! Here's how the scam works:

Two very good-looking 20-21 year-old girls with big boobs and long legs come over to your car as you are packing your shopping into the boot.
They both start cleaning your windscreen, their breasts almost falling out of their skimpy T- shirts. When you thank them and offer them a tip, they'll say 'No' and instead they ask you for a lift to Macdonalds.
You agree and they both get in the back seat.
On the way there, they start undressing, until both are completely naked. Then, when you pull over to remonstrate, one of them climbs over into the front seat and starts crawling all over your lap, kissing you, touching you intimately and thrusting herself against you, while the other one steals your wallet..!
I had my wallet stolen on March 4th, 9th,10th, twice on the 15th, 17th, 20th, 24th and 29th. Also on September 1st, 4th, 6th, 10th and 13th and twice yesterday.So please warn all the older men you know to be on the lookout for this scam.
The best times seem to be just before lunch and about 4:30 in the afternoon.
P.S. Aldi have cheap wallets on sale for $10.


(disclaimer - this joke is stolen from the internet....but I liked it!)
