    Default Beware - Irish Con-Man Selling TV's

    Everyone beware, watch out for an Irishman in a silver transit van selling cheap LCD tv's out the back of it, they dont work and he doesnt answer his phone after he's got your money, he's charging £400 for a 42" LCD...sounds too good to be true...well it is. he's a thief and con-man, his name is Jack and he's quite often in Wick selling Carpets from the back of his transit...his carpets might be good...his tv's aint...they are knackered.

    I was sat on my motorbike at a motorway services when an ‘Irish’ gentleman in a white Tranny van tried to sell me a microwave cooker. When I pointed out that I was on a bike he changed tack and tried to sell me a king size double quilt!

    carpets is one thing but buying tellys from the back of a van bit daft.
    no amount of darkness can drive out darkness
    only light can do that.

    There should be a daily post on here warning against the con-men in Government.
    Going to church doesn't make you a Christian anymore than standing in a garage makes you a car.
