My husband and I stopped at a QT today to get me a drink. The guy in a blue truck beside us rolled down his window and asked us how far to Yuma. We were in Mesa. He said they told him one hour and we said " no it's longer than that". Well this guy started talking about how Best Buy was closing and that he worked there and had these TV's for sale and they were so many dollars and we could have them for $90 each including taxes. We took all four.
just having gotten guardianship of four of my grandchildren we thought this would be great for Christmas gifts. My son also has four step children and four of his own( all older ) and we thought what a great Christmas this this would make. He kept talking and telling us to call him anytime if we needed anything and that he and his wife were Catholic and they could get the church to help. He told me he could get me a new retina display iPad and we could get laptops or anything we wanted at cost and then with his 30% discount. He was telling me " God bless you for taking care of your grand children", and him and his wife had lost a baby, but it wasn't really a baby yet because it didn't have a heartbeat yet. Great fast talker! He even had people in the parking lot asking for one of these and he said he would have to back to the store to get some more.
he is certainly a fast talking scam artist and it makes me sick to think of the personal things we talked about!
Got the boxes home and looked and thought what the heck. They were these Denson Audio Laboratories DX 801. Well, I thought maybe I could sell them. HAHAHA! I feel like such a fool and we lost $400! We certainly couldn't afford this.
my husband is 70 and a thirty year retiree of the Army. I am 62 and just retired. We feel so violated right now.
