Someone I know has been caught 3 times with this scam.

He's stumbling home from the nightclub in New York and a fear gorm comes up offering cocaine, a bit stupid but my friend never refuses drugs when he's drunk so he says go on sure and hands over $50 after being shown the little bag and feeling it. Gets the bag, goes back to the hotel to open it up and finds crunched up toilet paper! It's crazy how a bag of toiler paper feels like coke to the touch.

So he's in Vegas falling home along the strip and another fear gorm offers him coke. So he hands over $50 again, the bag is handed over but he's a bit perplexed when the seller legs it down the road. So he runs after him and manages to catch up with him but the guy seemed cool so he thought nothing of it. Back to the hotel, toilet paper again.

Then in London about 2 years ago outside the Sheperds Bush Walkabout another fear gorm comes up offering coke. My friend tells him the story of the previous 2 times when he was scammed with toilet paper, the seller says that's shocking but his stuff is great ****. Hands over £30, open it in the jackz, toilet paper again!

I don't know how the London guy kept a straight face when he was told the story but he made an easy £30.

Seachain na fear gorm!

You might fall for this once if you were a complete eejet but THREE times? Is your friend a bit slow?

Remember sitting in a pub in Liverpool, when 2 men walked in with a fruit machine on a trolley, said to barmaid they were changing machines.....used to be common practice as pub was owned by brewery ....................they replaced old machine with new one, plugged it in everything worked....got barmaid to sign docket book and off they went with old machine.......................The new one turned out to be empty when played later on that day, the 2 guys would have emptied the machine that they took away, and done the same scam on another pub using that machine...........Remember reading in the paper a few days later that they done about 15 pubs in a matter of days
