This is a question Conned

Have you carried out a successful con? Perhaps you hustled a few quid off a stranger, or defrauded a multi-national company. Or have you been taken for the wide-eyed, naive rube that you are?

« Go Back

The kind of car parks...
where they have the gate at the entrance/exit and you take a ticket as you enter, and then when you return to your car, you put the ticket in the machine and it tells you how much you owe, you pay it, then get your ticket back and put it in the machine to lift the boom gate on the way out.

ANYWAY...

The scam is you drive in, take a ticket, then go park for aslong as you like.
When you return (by foot) to your car, at the entrance of the car part take another ticket. (The have gaurds, but they are hardly vigilant) Use the second ticket in the boom gate as you leave, and it will let you through for free, as if you came in, but decided not to park after all/as if there were no spaces left.

Unless you are heavy as a car
and made of metal this doesn't seem to work!

Thanks anyway.
