Corby laptop scam victim conned into paying £300 for bottle of juice
A man paid £300 for a bottle of juice after falling foul of a laptop scam in a Corby car park.
The victim was approached by two men in the Everest Lane car park between 4.30pm and 4.50pm on Friday (July 15).
The men offered to sell him a new silver MacBook and after agreeing a price of £300, he handed over the cash and was given a bag in exchange.
