What does this sound like to y'all?
 

Sunday morning a guy knocks on my front door. I get up, go to the door and see the guy step off the porch, and head to the gate to enter the back yard on the side of the house, away from the street. I go out and he tells me he is looking for a car he saw advertised on Craig's list, and the phone he called earlier about it is going to voice mail. We are near the end of the block, and he claims he thinks the address is 57XX, my address is 56XX. I tell him it would be around the corner, but doubt the address exists. Further, no one on the street has a Lincoln like the one he described, maybe it is a block over. I have never seen the guy, the gal with him or the car they were driving before. My dog did not like the looks of him.

Yesterday, dog is barking at something around 10:00, which is fairly unusual. My wife goes out front, sees what she thinks is the same car, with a guy riding shotgun this time. She asked me if the car did not have a grill, which it did not, so it appears it actually was the same car, and the guy driving it looks the same too.

This strikes me as guys scouting houses to rob. Of course, it is not illegal to be lost, or driving down a street knowing it is not where the "car you are interested in buying" is located. But it struck me as a bit off. I am not too concerned about it for myself, as the dog is fairly large, with a low tolerance for sketchy characters, the wife is from Texas and is a fine shot. I am debating whether I ought to call the Sheriff's department. What do you guys think?

Car looked just like this

The guy is up to no good. Report him. If he shows up again, get his tag number.

Yeah, that is what I am thinking.

His tag number is in the picture, 6KXL616, that is why I took it.

Definitely, call the law...they'll love that pic! They also love citizen involvement like this.

always trust your dog..

Ahh, didn't know that was the actual car, thought it was "one like it."

I'd file a report. The local gendarmes could mention, in their daily briefing as they start a shift, to keep an eye out for the car.

There are all sorts of people out cruisng for places to rob. Around here, it might be "magazine salesmen" that, for some reason, have no brochure, no order forms...

Then there are the ones that just walk up to the front door and see if it's unlocked.

I really hope one of my dogs eats one of these *******s someday.

Ex-Narc gone bad.

Cz 83.....just saying:)

LOL! Does look like an ex cop car.

Yep, call the appropriate law enforcement agency. If nothing else to have a record of the incident.

I get the Bible Beaters ... who want to sell me Jesus... and then they ask if the 356 is for sale.

What would Jesus drive?

Coffee thru the nose!

A Honda IIRC. Doesn't the bible say something about him arriving in his own Accord ?

Come on man, you are busting their groove....they just need to pilfer/fence a few un-needed items for their next heroine hit, show a brother some slack !

Every car that comes on my farm gets photoed, day or night.

Surveillance is so cheap this days I can't imagine not doing it.

Jesus just left Chicago...

something with flat fenders, plexi windows and r comps.

Probably Speeder and one of his gf's coming to get you.

Bound for where?

Hope it's not "'Bout that shack outside La Grange"

And you know what I'm talkin' about :D
