A guy with red hair and a red beard in a white van shouted over to me and my friend in aztec highway parking lot in salt lake city, utah and said 'this might sound a little weird but do you guys want to buy some speakers?'.
At first we thought he just wanted to give them to us. But then he said they are a home theater system with a msrp of $1999, and he had a magazine with the exact upc# and picture and everything. He had about 5 of these in his car and that he got one in an error so he was really in need to get rid of it. He said he was really in the need for cash and that he was ready to take best offer. I told him $50 and thats all i had. He asked if I could do 200$ or something. He said he would take a check, cash or anything and asked if I had a debit card I could pull like another $100 out or something. I actually had $100 dollars on my unemployment card so he followed me to the bank where I pulled the money out and asked to see them again.
Even though I never heard of the brand name, they looked really legit, Still had the production tape on them and everything. I had him open them up and they looked good so he helped put them in the back of our car and I gave him my 150$.
He said if he ever sees me around like at the steve miller race track (here in tooele where I live) that i owe him a beer or something. I went to their website (www.genesismedialabs.com) and even that looks legit, but come to find out it's not.
Everyone beware of this scam!
