Ok, what is this scam. Some guys were yelling at everyone in the Publix parking lot asking the very same question. Tweekers?

Does not have to be a "company guy," it can be a intel person from any of various concerns.

the only other time I have heard spook was in a racist kind of way.
Now I know it means more than that. |

Had a similar experience about a month ago. Was driving in an upscale area following a black truck looking thing. At first I didn't pay much attention. Then I noticed it didn't have a license plate, was actually painted flat black, had fat semi off road tread tires, and actually looked similar to a brinks truck but smaller - very dark tinted windows too. After spending time looking at it trying to figure out what it was, I noticed two white Yukons with very dark tinted windows driving ahead of it. They turned right and the light changed to red just before the black truck entered the intersection. It didn't slow down a bit & just rolled into the intersection on the red light & turned right behind the two Yukons. Left me wondering who could be cruising that area needing that kind of security.

hahhaha,. i laugh, but this is the first scam i fell for (if you dont count that damn hyper-fast money exchange where i lost $20). i lost $200 of my college rent money with these effers. here is the scam. they drive around in van. strange, they all seem to be white. they find a mark. and ask if they need wonderful speakers. yes? well, lucky day. "we just went to the warehouse to pick up our inventory, and the people loaded in an extra set!!" they sell you the contraband speakers. mainstream speaker boxes..mine where JBL. i opened the cardboard to find CRAP speakers!! i never hooked them up...but a friend did. he said the sound quality was very very bad. hahaha. i considered it a cheap $200 dollar lesson. till i realized i didnt have enough for rent. the beauty of the scam is that no-one ever has a method to test the speakers in a mall parking lot. since then, i have been solicited 3 more times by the same story. i simply give them the finger.
