First - this fuckin’ Canadian did the funniest thing I’ve ever witnessed today. He was filling up his tank, but did EACH transaction on his credit/debit card for ONE DOLLAR. He did SIXTY TWO transactions. His reason: Every time he purchases something over here, he gets some cash back reward or some crap. He also printed a receipt for each transaction. Silly fucking canucks. Is it really worth taking over an hour to get $62 in gas? Finally my boss had enough (because she has to do all that paperwork, and we get charged for credit card transactions) and told him to leave.
Second - This fuckin’ lady comes in, says she was here on Thursday, and she bought a carton of Seneca’s (mind you, they’re ELEVEN fucking dollars) and a roll of Copenhagen, but left it here because her mom died. Claims she called and talked to another cashier and they were to be held behind the counter. Left me her name and number. Yada Yada Yada. She came in last year and did the same thing. So, I called her cell, to make sure it was her, and basically told her she’s lying and I know she didn’t buy anything here last week. She swore up and down I had the wrong person.
Well, after I got off the phone, I called a couple other stores to warn them. Welp, one cashier at a store believed her. So, I gave them her info, and they’re calling the cops. LOLZ. Dumb bitch. How many times is your mom going to die? Swearing that no one’s going to catch on when you go to the same stores all the time.
I just wanted to mention that. Haha. Tell your silly scammer stories here!
Good stories though, people are ridiculous. I work at a Play It Again Sports shop in Albany (new/used sports equip for those unfamiliar) and I come across alot of ridiculous people. People bring in used garbage all the time and act like its gold for god sakes.
Anyways funny story… this one young punk brings in a bunch of used golf clubs…some nice some not and wants to trade up to a new Callaway driver. We take some of his shit and give him his cash. He decides to just take the cash and leave, no new club for him. Well about 20 min after he left I noticed the club he was looking at was no longer there. After checking the tapes real quick I noticed he took the clubs we didnt take and added the new club to his pile. When he got his cash he walked out with the clubs and stole the new one.
Anywho…the kid would have gotten away with it if he didnt leave his NAME, ADRESS, AND PHONE NUMBER on little stickers on the clubs we took in. It took us no more than 20 min to track him down and the father ended up coming in with the club swearin up a storm at his kid threatening to beat him and whatnot. i LOL’d…people are stupid sometimes.
My credit card I use for work gives me like 2 points for each dollar…so if i swipe it 50 times for $1 each or 1 time for $50 it still give me the same.
That would be hilarious. I would by things in parts if I can get one that pays me per transaction, not the amount.
