My. Mate got caught. Out with them about a year ago… like an idiot they were cruising the estate selling cheap TVs. My mate agreed.
They. Opened there. Van had boxes of TVs they opened one to show him.
He agreed a price.
They we’re nice n polite said open your door were carry it in for you
. Basically he got an empty sealed box
Could’ve listened to the radio if there was nothing in the box.

That scam’s as old as the hills (if not older). When camcorders were the latest in desirable tech they’d do exactly the same and the buyer would end up with a nicely presented box containing a bottle of water.
