Houston area (along with DB's not from Houston) BS thread

Another option is to have someone local check it out for you as well before you make the drive...

 

Only communicating by email with generic responses .. 'is the item in question still available'

Having a brother in Zimbabwe that needs something and he will overpay what you're asking

Hiding the license plates.. not a bad practice but a nice clean vehicle that you know is worth more than the asking price is an automatic flag

Phone numbers that don't have local area codes, I usually put in my ads text only, no emails or calls.

Got to look for this new scam that got me a while back .. this guy said I'm gonna call you from my computer and it's a weird number, when you pick up hit the 2 key and we can talk. No problem. I got the call and hit 2 and I heard a voice say 'your subscription is active'.

Shit like that

 

This was a good one. I put an ad on CL and maybe a minute later I get this text, obviously a bot

 

yeah i dont like putting my phone number on the CL ads. I like to work it via the CL email. I tend to get less scammers in this way for some reason.

 

Has anybody in here taken a trip to MAOB. I'm tempted to make a trip this year.

 

I got a text like that for my mower last week (still for sale) but I didn't email them. I just replied in the text and they never replied back

 

I need something stronger than coffee this morning

 

Agreed.

 

Well you're in Texas City, so just find a corner or an alley and a shady person will address you shortly.

 

That's when I turn on my high beams, light bars, and 4 spot lights. Until they either turn thier off or pass me. Lol

 

Meth!

im *hopefully* about to sell a trolling motor via fb marketplace so i will let you guys know how it goes. This will be my first sale on fb thats not in a fb group. I just posted it straight to the market place. meeting a guy about it today.

 

Not as difficult as i expected to. Though i did a great job of planning out my work and having everything ready to go. The ARB twin compressor is under the hood on a mount that a guy on the t4r.org forums makes. It is sick and fits perfect. I had to take the airbox out to install it, but now its in and now all i have to do is run and terminate my wiring. Hardest part now is figuring out how to eliminate the ARB switch and hook it straight to the NSA box.

 

Constable killed out in Baytown. Damn hoodlums!

Is Baytown a bad area?



Sad day for his family and law enforcement. Brother is a deputy back home....always sucks to hear these things.

 

Mondays suck...especially when Sunday is your only day off

 

That was fun. lol
