Same guy - got me in front of guitar center, boston at 9pm last night with a story about his kid being in the hospital and needing $13 since he, "ran out of the house with his kid in his arms to get to childrens hospital and when I decided to help him with $13 he said that it was 30 not 13 dollars he needed. I've been in boston a few years and never fell for any of these bs scams and I can't believe i let myself get talked into this one. I did get his phone number, however, and he has been picking up telling me as soon as he's back in the city (from business trip) he'll pay me back...
Huntington, in front of the Prudential center.
Story: Verizon salesman, needed money for a tow, his kid was in the car. Offered to give his phone or watch as collateral, even his wedding ring but his wife would kill him. Said he needed $13.55, but then repeated it as $30.55 when handing over the money (inside the entrance near Shaws, at the bottom of the elevators, presumably out of camera range).
Middle aged black man, bit of a belly, obvs a salesman/hustler (but it fits his story!), white t-shirt tucked into pants.
Anywho, probably gonna pawn his watch. Guessing it's a knock-off (the company who's name is on it went under 10 years ago, but it's in perfect condition.)
Shoot me mail at avv3115 at gmail dot com if you know anything about him.

Forest Hills T. Got the same story as the 2nd guy... needed 13, no 30 for tow. Kid in the car. Got home and googled the number. Ran back to the station to punch his face in, but he was gone. Gives me something to do when I am around town. If I see him, he will get knocked out and arrested.
