I would like to share with the community stories from my world .The very history I took out of the closed Russian forums.
The scheme is as old as the world.Everywhere stretch announcement of intent to acquire any particular stuff at huge cost.For example, "Buy weights since the Soviet Union 500 000 rubles for a couple."Spam these ads.Next, we expose other ads: "Buy weights since the Soviet Union of 100 000 rubles for a couple."Selling weights,disappear.But it is somehow boring. In the nineties, one person cranked similar scam.In the case of weights, there may be hundreds of owners of weights, and in this case it is made secure.
He bought ... tobacco ash.
The announcement was this: "Buy tobacco ashes 300,000 per kilogram."
You know a lot of people collect cigarette ashes, and even in large quantities?So ... at a time when some began to collect the ashes from each smoked cigarette,there was another announcement :
"Selling tobacco ash. 100,000 per kilogram. In the presence of 10 kg."
People threw off the purchase of tobacco ashes whole quarters. As a result, all ten kilograms have been sold in less than a week.
And yes ... a motivated buyer purchase that tobacco ashes now used for the production of super-expensive drug.
You this story may seem ridiculous and untrue, but unfortunately our people are ready for the sake of easy money to go to any act.
