I was at school in CalState Northridge when I was leaving to put stuff in my car. I had class and some guys stopped me to check out the home theatre system. I really wasn't all that interested, but I went along anyways.
They said they offered someone the speakers but they needed cash and not check. They said they were from newport, ca and that they were on their way to do a run to set up some speakers at a a bosses place and they only ordered 4 boxes but got 8. So they needed to get rid of some speakers.
They offered me the speakers for $400 and I wa snot going to play around with that so I said no thanks, walked off and went to my car. The other guy in the car ran after me and was like dude my buddy is being greedy we just really need to get rid of them before we set these other ones up.
He said can you do $200 right now, you can have them. I'll put it in your car and we can take you to a bank or go to an atm or whatever. I said ok, thinking I was getting a deal and figured $200 for a home theatre system wasn't bad.
In conclusion, I was late to class and charged an atm fee for using a different bank than my own to get money out. I lost $200 that I need to pay for school because, although I never fall for scams I fell for the biggest one of them all. I jsut want half my money back.
All of us that got ripped off or scammed should do something. This happened to me yesterday at 1230am 9/22/03. If we can possibly take them to court or something all of us should rally. They ahve contact numbers and a website. To make a website you need to put necessary information and you also have a recorded IP. (meaning they can be traced)
I am upset about this and think we all should do everything in our power to bring these scam artists down and imprison them or give them their neccessary verdict.
