Lady gets scammed into buying wooden "iPad" (brainwash, cost, dollar)

[Nepenthe]

Caveat emptor

Wow her greed was far greater than her sense.

Hmmm total stranger approaches her ina parking lot and offers a product for 1/5'th of value.

He doesn't show her a product, just a box, which isn't even the box of the product.

she doesn't ask to see it work.

She is just stupid and likely shouldnt be trusted with money.

I remember the story of the the company that was selling copper portraits of Abe Lincoln for x dollars. The company sent you a PENNY. Ha ha.

I agree. She spends money almost as foolishly as the gov't does.

You can't scam an honest man.

They should arrest her for attempted fencing of stolen goods!

Reminds me of the unbelievably cheap 'solar clothes dryer' scam of a few decades ago.

The purchaser received a piece of rope.

hahahahahaha

McDowell told deputies one of the suspects had a gold tooth and was driving a white Chevy Impala with no rims and no tint.

hah. a man with gold teeth is selling ipads out the trunk of his beat-up chevy impala? always heed the warning signs.

[SNEwx_46]

If she used money given to her from the gov't, is it really lost money? Isn't it considered stimulus for an oppressed minority?
