Estate buyers robbed at Florida Mall hotel


The thieves targeted a series of safes holding up to $400,000 in merchandise purchased over the weekend from Central Floridians responding to advertisements to sell gold jewelry, rare coins, collectibles and watches, according to a sheriff's report and advertising for the three-day event.

Hahaha.....From the article:

The Florida Mall hotel was one of four Orlando-area locations where the estate buyers advertised they would have $4 million in cash to buy gold, jewelry and other items over the weekend.

Yup, thats what I advertise too.

I wonder if the 400K was was their buy estimate or sell estimate?

Probably only spent a Thousand

Buying the $400,000.00 worth of Merchandise

Which was also probably Doubled
from $200,000 for Insurance Purposes

YES!


Hopefully the guy will get off with 10% bail of 10% what they paid for the "merchandise", LOL!

4 grand and a slap on the wrist will let the scam artists know they can't get away with ripping people off forever.
