New scam operating in Accy town center, Eastern Europeans with a badly photocopied message, purporting that they are deaf & dumb, trying to get people to sign a paper, and donate money. Face ache was accosted by two whilst in the town shopping, she told the first to sod off, and would be reporting the matter to the Plod, the 2nd one she warned a couple of women, not to sign or give them money, couldn't find any plod in the town center, reported at the Cop Shop, was told the Plod were on patrol in the town center, when she said no they weren't, the desk clerk said no they've just come back, she would go and warn them.
The scammers weren't deaf or dumb, they understood every word she said to them, didn't break their cover, just backed away.
