Scams? In LA?
WELL, Not if you buy my scam insurance. $5 a month.
Sign me up. Finally someone is doing something to protect us innocent people from the those who would take advantage of us.
BTW, if I buy two subscriptions can I get twice the protection?
If you buy two subscriptions you get 1.5x the protection. Unfortunately there are diminishing marginal returns.
For regular insurance. You, my friend, if sounds like you want the premium insurance. It’s just $24.99 /mo + a one time $200 activation fee.
The premium insurance has no diminishing marginal returns and you can buy as many as you’d like! However, they all must be activated individually.
Sounds like you’re a straight shooter with upper management written all over you.
Yeah, including trump, the worst scam artist of all.
