Why do people keep the PIN in their purse, with their bank card?
FFS do they have a sign round their neck saying "ROB ME I'M AN IDIOT"
Same with auld folk being taken in at their ain door, its not as if there haven't been plenty of warnings over the years
Perhaps they have a similar sign in their windae

I actually have a pal who lives in Gourock and was taken in by these bastards. He got the old, "Misturrr, yur roof needs fixin..needs fixin, we'll do it for three hunderrrr, we will so"
The daft bastard gave them the money upfront and never saw them again until he was passing the old Gantock site and saw the same blue Transit parked amongst the squalor. Of course he didn't go to the police because he said they's think him a fool but as he was a fool, he should gone nonetheless.
We had them here a few months ago when I was in really bad shape and couldn't deal with them. My mother filled the role of attack dog and saw them off and closed the gates on them. If we had lived in Texas, I swear she would have shot them! Funny thing is, she is usually a wee timid, 'wouldn't say boo to a goose type lady'. Mind you, you should see her with Mormons!!!!!

The wife's uncle had them round last autumn, just before he died, luckily one of his neighbours seen him taking them in the hoose and went round toot-sweet and told them to fek aff, He knew fine well not to bother with them, but decided to let them in anyways, mrs Sam went through him like a dose of salts |

although we are in a court with security doors some old folks up here sometimes let's them in and its not the first time we have had a call from a neighbour telling us that they are in .....jocky and i go up through the court and its not the first time we have escorted them out.....one time there was a girl who was going round the doors and we got a call...we got the girl and escorted her into our house and phoned the number she had on her card....it turned out she was legal so what we did was told the person on the other end of the phone to take our court of their lists as its a CLOSED court....that worked for a number of years but i see they are starting to creep back in again.....all we can do is warn the tenants here and if they dont listen then there is nothing we can do about it....riverclyde homes has warned them not to open the outside door unless they know them
