Truck stop safety (FYI)

During the day this is usually the same type of scam they use to get inexperienced guys conned into the 3 card monty.

 

Thanks for sharing. Never witnessed that con but can't say I'm surprised. You never know what you can run into or what will come to you at a truck stop, small or large, regardless where no less. I suspect these occurrences will only get more frequent. Problem is, on private property, the local pd/sheriff's dept are not allowed to make random drive throughs on their shift, and these would help discourage a lot of illegal activity. And few truck stops will pay for a 12 or 24 hour "security" presence.

 

New one to me.

but ,first thing I do is draw the front curtain and stretch out. can't see any of it.lol

 

or they say a guy is giving a 100 doolar bills after winning the lottery, these seem like amatuer 3 card monty guys.

 

Pull the curtain turn out the lights and let the idiots have it.

 

You noticed they were missing and didn't report it? Good job driver.

 

was at the ta in binghamton and about midnight woke up thinking something wasnt right.grabbed my lock and went to the back of the trailer to find a guy standing there.As a excorrectional officer I looked him right in the face and said you are not a driver as i was putting the lock on the trailer.He walked away but I got back in the truck while looking over my shoulder.I got on the cb and told the drivers that was awake that someone is behind the trailers.about 5 drivers showed up by my truck and went looking for the guy.I went inside to tell the manager someone is messing with the trailers and he said they knew.They thought it was a homeless guy looking for a place to sleep.really in a reefer?that lot is open to a street behind there and would make it very easy to commit a crime and run

 

i think he means the two guys trying to get the drivers out of their trucks left, not that the drivers disappeared

 

You need one of these.
