My dad's friend told him he'd seen an ad online from a guy who was selling $4000 plasma TVs for $900 each. He ordered 5, planning to keep one and sell the others for a profit.

My Dad felt a bit uncomfortable, and mentioned that it sounded a bit like a scam, but the guy was adamant. Naturally, he never received any TVs, and couldn't contact the fellow ever again.

P.T. Barnum underestimated the rate at which suckers are born.

Tell your dad's friend that I'm loading the speakers into the white van now.
