[QUOTE="Perplexed, post: 4261592, member: 7157"] A strong storm went through my old neighborhood some years back when I lived there. Trees were downed all over, including a medium-sized one in my yard. I was outside the day after the storm, surveying the damage. Two guys in a pickup truck with a regular plate (not commercial) pulled up, and one got out and started with a spiel about cutting up the tree for me for, I think, $500 cash. The “cash” bit and his general demeanor got my spidey sense tingling, so I asked for a business card. He yammered something and got back into their truck, and they drove down the street and stopped in front of another house where a neighbor was outside. I jogged down the street, and when they saw me coming, they got back into the truck and left. Didn’t see them again. [/QUOTE]
