Can,t we shorten it to, "Don't ever have $10,000 in cash?"

Well you could always give it to Goldman Sachs and end up with the same end result...

Don't be a pussy,he seems legit.

WhyteRaven74: Well you could always give it to Goldman Sachs and end up with the same end result...

Except the anonymous stock broker probably won't end up in a prominent position with the Federal Government later, so if you do it with GS at least there is some potential to get a favor on down the road......

Yup, that's what I took from this more than anything.

Sorry but,if you are that stupid, you deserve to lose your money.
And if this lady is just old and confused then she shouldn't have access to that kind if cash.
I mean really,she didn't have a car,said she worked at Dollar Tree.
Stupid

I feel like there has to be more to this story. Old lady meets woman at Post Office, takes her to McDonalds and within a few minutes, shes handing over $10K?

So you're telling me I shouldn't have given 25K to that cute boy to invest at Circuit City?

Trying too hard. The negroes are ANIMALS troll only works for McDonald's fights and such. Now if badgers or possibly lemurs had evolved the ability to run a confidence game then you might have gotten some bites. As it stands, this one's a snoozer.

Yeah those stock brokers in parking lots are really bad. The other ones are OK though.

Thats the ticket.

Wait a minute - how was she able to withdraw $10K worth of money all at once? Either Granny is completely senile and the bank should be thoroughly investigated for allowing it, or granny's full of shiat.

Do not give $10,000 in cash

Don't worry, it was $11,253.

ROSWELL, Ga -- It started with a simple trip to the post office for an 81-year-old Roswell woman and ended in a scam that cost her $10,000.

Why are most security cam's still from 1985? Even at major chain places that are likely to get robbed. I have a frickin cam on my cell that will shoot 720p HD for farking out loud. You could have that biatch's pic as clear as her facebook page. As opposed to this fuzzy crap that narrows it down to 10,000 black women in the metro area.

She's a friend of my parents' and is the realtor who sold me my house. Nice lady, can't believe she got taken like this.

Good to know he's listed all his previous clients on his page - companies, apartment complexes, hotels in an around the ATL area - boy, wouldn't they be surprised to see his new 'whites only' policy.

I'm a bit surprised that this happened in Roswell. The perp probably came in from some other area. Roswell has a few Hispanics, but very few Blacks. Except for the upper middle class Blacks, for which Atlanta is famous, there is nowhere in Roswell that Blacks can afford to live. It's rather lily-white and affluent, with a median income of $92K. It isn't a high crime place.

That area around Swallow at the Hollow is pretty dumpy. But you're right that she could have come from any other suburb around there considering that area is a random jumble of suburbs with odd angles smushed together.

The shopping center they are taking about is just up the road, where Southern Skillet is. That's where the Hispanics gather to get day work. Most of them live in the area back behind it. She probably didn't come from any of the nearby burbs. Roswell is surrounded by East Cobb, and Alpharetta, which are also very affluent and even more lily white. She could have come from Sandy Springs, but most of these kinds of scams are perpetrated well away from where the criminal lives. It's harder to get caught if you go to the other side of town. She may not even be from Atlanta, but is traveling around doing this in a number of cities.

How can you fall for that? Pfffffft I only invest my money in Glenn Beck gold and Franklin Mint plates.

Eh, I work in Johns Creek. I can find you a crappy apartment complex in any city in North Fulton. Isn't Scarietta considered East Cobb? It's a long bus ride from the city.
