Corey Tamas at Macgasm:
The sheister in question approached his mark in Dark Lane, Bentley and offered to sell him an iPad. Once agreeing on a price, they went off to a cash machine together and completed the transaction. After leaving the scene, the buyer discovered he had been sold a bag of potatoes (because why would you ever buy an iPad off a guy on the street and check what’s in the bag before parting ways?).
People, people, people.
The ironic thing is, if the guy said he was selling the other guy a Playbook, the guy with the bag of potatoes would be all “I totally ripped that guy off!”
I have never blamed the victim of a scam and won’t start now.
But this is the closest I’ll ever get.
