Scams!
Alright peeps, this is the place to share your scams that you know of, or more importantly, have pulled off before!
1) The movie ticket Scam
-buy a ticket and fold it over to look like it already has been ripped. Wait for a few people to approach the ticket ripper guy at the entrance to the theater. Just hold it up quickly to him/her just enough to show that it is for a movie of that day. Then, after the movie, go back to the ticket booth and ask for a refund on your unripped movie ticket saying that you bought an extra for your friends that were running late. Note: I found out this weekeend that some movie houses require you to take your ticket back 15 min after the movie starts...you'd just have to go back to a different ticket booth to avoid talking to the person you just bought it from.
2) The movie rental scam
-everyone knows that Blockbuster is a monopoly, and the $4.32 that they charge for a rental (in my area) is complete gargabe. Even more
appauling is their late fee charges...those bastards! So, set it up so that you and a friend rent a movie on the same day. Then, after watching the movie, swipe it with your friends tape before you take it back. When you get back to the store, tell them that the wrong movie was in the box when you got it...and they will give you a free rental!
-Feel free to share yours!

hehe!!! cool thread!!!
this happened to me: found this add on to a game i really like, and it was �5 ($7), goto agree, that aint bad, so i brought it, the cd was greyscale, i didnt think nething of it, it didnt work, illegal operation everytime i ran it, i searched all over the web and i asked on here and nothing, i took it to my mates house and ran it and illegal opperation! i rang up the comp, explained all and he sed sounds like a dodgy cd and sent me a replacement straight from there depo, this one was blue, i new then it was a copy and supirse suprise this one works fine! i took the copy back to the shop and literally sed "this doesnt work" and the guy next to him says "give him a refund" just like that so they obviously new it was a copy and gave me my money back! lol! so ive now got the game i wanted for free!!!! hehehe!!!! try it!!!
Coup 
1) The free pool table!
Put ur money into the slot in the pool table, push it in and put a peg in the little hole just below the slider. The slider will now trap on that peg and leave the "roller" which holds the balls at an angle, if u get this angle right the balls should just slide right back to be played again. If it doesnt work, just blame it on a dodgy table and ask some1 to open the table up to get the ball out

HA! That reminds me of something else...a few years ago I bought the Norton Anti-Virus program. After I installed it and found I had no viruses I took it back to the store to get my $$ back. They said they couldn't refund my $$, but that I could call the number on the back of the box for one.
So I called Norton, told them I didn't need it, and they told me that they would send me a refund if I agreed to destroy the software.
HA! Suckers! I just gave it to a friend, and a few days later I got a check in the mail for $50.
Cha-ching!
thank you!
haha
wow

if ya want free food. Drive thru is the way to go. Just drive thru, order something(get a receipt for shure) come back in a few minutes later minus the item(cheeseburger etc) DO NOT try with a 20 piece nugget! and complain to a manager that there is something missing.
Oder a pizza late at night, just as it's about to close. And then a few minutes later order another one for an address that's on the way from the pizza place to yours, but doesn't really exist. Something like Flat 12 when you know there's only 10 or something. Or number 34a.
They'll probably get the same dude to deliver both, he'll go o deliver the other one first but it wont be there, so when he comes to you he'll give you both but only charge you for yours. It's worked a few times for me.
The other way is to order one yourself, have your mate order one, and while you're paying for yours, your mate's nicking the other one out that back of the bike.
hahaha thats great, they'rd proberly work aswel!! right, one to get lots of money fast then, hum, ideas?

I enjoy buying expensive computers only to take them apart and replace their internal components with inferior components so that I can then take the computers back to the store for refunds, thereby ending up with nice shit that I can sell to my homiez so that they can then sell it on the street or trade for drugs/guns/women/whatever they want. It's a rather lucrative endeavor.
My friends and I used to go to McDonalds (with the 2 drive-up windows), and (this is a good one..) you order your food, go to the first window, pay the fee, then ...
drive off real quick and they won't even know what hit them!
haha, the people behind you will end up getting your food instead of their own LoLol........

Tried and Tested... ok u need 2 people, for example mark say a �20 note($20 dollar bill) e.g write something on it that you can i.d by (i.e telephone number) then get your friend to go into a shop and buy a pack of cigarettes then give it about 5 minutes then go into the shop yourself with a �10 note($10 dollar bill) and buy a drink or something... when the cashier gives you your change from the �10 note... wait until they close the cash draw and say ooops i think i gave you a 20 and when they try and argue there case you turn and say im positive i did i remember writing a telephone number on it and laugh or something, they will apologise and give you the 20! you are now 10 quid up!

scams...hrmmmm. well besides pinching off people right under their noses when i'm buying weed and buying shit at the mall with a stolen credit card with my best friend...hehe nothin really major. but my BF on the other hand...well i won't tell u the shit he's pulled off lately. let's just say he made $22,000 from it
ahhhh, u know what?? i just thought of the funniest shit my bf told me he did one time to some dude that pissed him off. he called up AT&T and acted like he was some dude who ran a phone sex line and that something was wrong with the number and that he needed the number to be re-routed IMMEDIATELY!! haah he acted all mad and i don't know all the details as to how he pulled it off (i'm sure it was much more complicated than just calling up and complaining...but he's a slick mofo) but anyway he pulled it off and had that dude's number re-routed so that all these fuckin men were calling HIS number thinking it was a phone sex line....can u imagine how many times his phone rang that night???? lmao....that shit just cracked me up!
funny that you should mention that, slylee, b/c recently i've been getting calls on my cell, where i will pick up and its a recording of some girls talking nasty to me.... and the call will come like 6 times in a span of 15 minutes!!!!! its pissing me OFF!!!
