Weird!!!!, by clipit101 on Apr 24, 2008 19:13:32 GMT 1, Ive just had a guy litterally 2 minutes ago banging my door down. So i went to door and this guy was the biggest human ive seen. He said to me "ive heard youve got a bit of a modern art collection can i have a look as im quite interested in what you might have". Ive never met this guy and i asked how he knew of me but he wouldnt say. I obviousley said no to him and he was fine with it and that i should keep my eyes peeled for some new graffiti apearing around where i live. Dont know if he was just over friendly a phsyco or hes gonna rob me. All i know is it was fukin weird!

Also there is quite obviousley to anyone on my street that theres loads of cameras around. And he's shown himself to me and all the cameras. I think he was just really weird!

But you're right, a good thief just pretends he is calling from god, or is selling sponges, cloths, dusters etc.

Weird!!!!, by Heavyconsumer on Apr 24, 2008 20:05:10 GMT 1, That would worry the sh1t out of me! Someone who's been to your house or who has sent art to your address has spread the word in a very loose-lipped and inconsiderate manner, for a total stranger to rock up unannounced like that. It certainly sounds like your joint was being cased and I'd be trying to come up with ideas as to how this dude has your address and how he knows you have an art collection (presumably one of some financial value).
Man, I would be P!SSED OFF!

I saw someone posted a link on here to a blog or flickr page showing their extensive banksy collection. Their username was their real name and it showed roughly where they were from. With that information you can get his address. Beware what you publish especially on your facebooks etc..... Also try to have different passwords for each website.
Everybody......Be careful out there.

'oh oh oh' he said 'er was wondering if you've got any jobs!' - 'we have actually' said i - gripped him and started pulling him toward the cellar whilst calling for assistance... unfortunately the slippery little worm shrugged my grip and done one out the fire exit, probably was best for all!
