I was just finishing up lunch and visit to my bank, I was getting into my truck when I was approached by 2 white males claiming to have extra flat screen tv's. They said they install electronics and this job- Buffalo Wild Wings- ordered too many tv's so if they don't unload it the contractor will take it back- that was the first line of the scam. 

He had a whole trunk full of Karmon KA-42 (actually a home theater system) and the one front man- main sales/scam artist was quick to show me pricing of the unit 2100 bucks- then he starts pulling out an electronic magazine- again he had it all down. I said no I wasn't interested but he was very persistent- grabbed a box and put it in my car- said to me I will take $600. I said no way I don't have it- he kept pushing me to go back to my bank - another strategy is for them to scam people near ATM machine of a bank, so the victim can pull out the cash.  They work in teams and very quick, he put one item in the back of my truck- mind you the box is huge- I said no no no thank you. He said come on - come on your getting a deal and I said NO - as I started to walk away he blocked me from getting into my car- I felt like I had to pay him to make him leave me alone. Super aggressive, and as they pulled away very fast I recogized they probably scammed me, big time.  They were driving a later model Toyota 4-Runner gun metal gray, CA tags put probably a rental or who knows.

 These guys were trainined and professional scam artists/thieves- they obviously pray on people that are alone and are somewhat remotely parked away from other people. I wonder if they know where cameras are at these malls, they are smart not to park near the bank parking lot as the cameras could pick them up. Yes I am foolish and yes I fell for it- 150 bucks is what they got from me, not bad for 10 min.   They will get caught eventually at least that is my hope. I was meant to learn a lesson from this- life is all about them- you can't getting something for nothing and to really basically trust no one- city living is tough. I was in Hawaii and full of trust and faith for human race after 4 years and now my guard is back up where it used to be after this. I donated the junk speakers to Goodwill I guarantee they were fakes- the whole thing was fake and these guys being so young will end up in a place they wished they never would go- a career ripping people off is eventually going to end.  Police report filed- my pride totally wrecked - but I'll get over it could have been for a lot more money!
