Word of Warning when Selling "Smart" Devices
While visiting my niece on her campus a few weeks ago I ran into who I'm guessing was a stoner named "Dug" looking for an easy $50 selling a Toshiba Roku TV that his parents must have bought for him.
Worth a little over $300 brand new. Forget all about because I stacked some drywall in front of it. Well today I plugged it into the intraweb and low and behold the TV he sold me still holds every bit of information and account access (Fire TV, Disney +, Prime Video, You Tube Plus, Netflix, Max etc). Hell I could even buy stuff off whosever credit card is on the Amazon account. Not that stupid but I could pull it off just because of his lack of foresight. So, when selling a "smart" device make sure you wipe it or smash the thing with a hammer. It's scary to think everything has your ID today if you allow. You can buy a $400 smart toaster off of Amazon at this moment. https://www.amazon.com/Revolution-R2...8367402&sr=8-3 Think I'll watch a couple Sopranos episodes and do the lad a favor and wipe his Roku for him. BTW, Rolu sucks even with top notch wireless. Once you get it going it's not bad but navigating through the menus is like running Baulder's Gate on a Pentium 1 with 7gb of RAM. Hope Dug enjoyed the ganja. |

Most likely from a minority, cripple who's single Mom is working 10 jobs to get him through college in-between instances of his dead beat father showing up drunk and beating them both with canes that carriers fake receipts, the original box and mounting equipment and inputs credit card and account information on stolen merchandise. You have a lovely scowl. |

See if you can send messages among his family members just to start some drama.

An episode of the Sopranos sounds pretty good right now. Ugh.

Stick to the internet, sonny. You read a 5 second quip and can summarize the whole situation in your own head. I don't buy stolen merchandise. If you were 1/2 as smart as you thought you were you'd be competent. |

Nothing even close like it happened but you keep telling yourself poochy that you know everything because you can and it's the intrawebz. And don't forget more smiley faces in your next response, Nostradamus. You might look silly w/o them to back up your clairvoyance. |

Random stoner? Crazy unrealistic low price? Zero effort to remove accounts or data?
Gotta agree with loochy. Definitely sounds stolen.
