The acquaintance worked in the 00s in OBEP, told a story with fraudsters.

I lived in a small town, and the buildings were mostly single-storey private houses. So, one day at one of the houses stops a lighthouse, which begins to repair a man. After repair he leaves, but returns in a couple of hours and knocks to the owners. M and B grandmother

M: I repaired the car near your house and accidentally lost the video cassette, and there was a marriage of my daughter, who lives in Moscow, and I myself from Samara. This recording is in a single copy. Did you not find?

B: No children were found.

M: Sorry... But suddenly you find it, I’ll pay you for it, here’s my phone number. And suddenly, if someone finds another, then buy a cassette, here you have 1000 rubles.

B is good son. Take a visit card with money.

A couple of days pass, a guy (P) knocks on the owners and says he walked past the house and found a cassette.

X: Yin, this man lost, please give it.

No, only for 10,000.

X: Now I will call the owner of the cassette.

Grandma calls the man, he says, give any money for the tape, tomorrow I will come back.

My grandmother gave everything. Naturally no one is coming, then the cassette decided to see, and there "Well, wait." This is such story.
