I'm sure that this has happened to many, but for some it's just a myth or urban legend. A story that they heard from a friend of a friend. But it's true, both DV Dude and myself have been approached as potential "marks" for the Speaker deal of a life time.
It will happen when you least expect it, in the parking lot of a Canadian Tire, or a Gas Station or anywhere that unsuspecting people can be approached without cause for concern.
2-3 Men in a commercial van or small box truck will pull up beside you...
"Pssst... Hey buddy, come here, I got something to tell you.... Due to a warehouse packing mix up, I've got an extra set of $XXXX value speakers, I need to get rid of them before I go back to the warehouse...."
Then the con, they will offer you the speakers for pennies on the dollar, a $2000 set for $150 bucks....
Check it out, it's even on Wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/White_van_speaker_scam
