Yet another victim in this seemingly nationwide scam.
Scene:
Approached at a gas/mini-mart station at a major intersection (near Wolfchase Galleria Mall in east Memphis, TN) by 2 young white guys (early 20's) with the same bullcrap story as all the rest in a white van (ford?) with MO plates.
Lesson learned: don't buy *anything* from 2 seemingly nice guys from a parkling lot.
First words they uttered that rang the *this smells fishy* alarm, were "can you get the money from an ATM?" That should have been my first clue, but they took a check, which they cashed pronto, I checked about 10mins after they had left the bank.
