I was downtown today and this guy comes up to me after i just bought my parking ticket to park downtown all day $22.00

He's says he'll sell me tickets from now till march for $160.00 he had them all in his hand. They had acouple different digets per slip....anyways i didn't buy any but my buddy which works downtown did last month and have worked so far.

Has any of you guys heard of this before?

Similar story happened to me, a guy ran up to me and sold me a ticket to park all day and when I was about to leave he'd ask for it back so he could sell it to someone else.

At least it's a more creative way to earn a living than squeegeeing (sp?) car windows :)

i think thats a great idea... at least he's doing ppl a favor, rather then sitting on his ass begging... like the others do. I can see him making at least 100 bucks doin that.

So what's the scam here? He buy a ticket and take it to the nearest copying place and sell the dupes?
