How to Hijack a Quarter of a Million Dollars in Rare Japanese Kit Kats
- itsthecourier 3y agoI wonder what the storage company will do and more importantly, what the scammer won out of this, he scammed twice to steal a load he could have done since the start? Maybe the second location has purposeful lax surveillance and the know it.

- voiceblue 3y agoIf you run a "freight brokering company" and you are just posting the jobs you get on Craigslist, what are you even getting paid for? Then, you end up getting scammed by truckers, not once, but twice!? What kind of a brokering company is this...are there no rules or regulations? What's worse, this broker has been doing this for two decades according to TFA...in all that time they've managed to remain stuck posting on Craigslist and (presumably) have no trusted contacts or partners. Also, nit: I wouldn't call these "rare", they are just imported. You can find them easily if you know where to look.
- atdrummond 3y agoThe jobs aren’t going on Craigslist; that was just a comparison to explain to a layman what the freight brokerage listing sites look and operate like. Using these sites is pretty common in the industry.
- voiceblue 3y agoAh, I see. Doesn't seem that much better given the outcome.

- whoiscroberts 3y agoSo what is the scam how does the bogus driver who showed up to pick up the KifKats get paid?
