Tire Scam Scipio Ut.

I know I have read this somewhere before but I think on another forum, the other day relatives from Canada were heading South on Hwy 15 and pulled into a Flying J to fuel up in Scipio Ut. when a man walked up to him from a tire shop behind the station and said he had a tire on the 5ver separating, he new better than that as he had just put on new 14ply tires not to long ago, so when he arrived here in Q, he wanted me to check his tires also and there was no problem with them, you can Google this, and the tire shop has been fined before for selling people tires they did not need, just a warning for those of you out there on the road in this area.....

Almost as bad as tele marketers scamming seniors or door to door driveway or roof repair guys (really meth heads). Hey, they say, you really need this (fill in the blank) fixed. Pay me for the materials today, I will be back tomorrow and do the job. Than a week later they phone the police crying about being taken by a slick talking guy just wanting to help them. I say crying because they really are and I feel sorry for them, some people trust others to much.
