Professional Victim

A person who intentionally sets himself or herself up to be an accident victim, in order to collect liability insurance settlements from others.

The insurance investigator discovered that the pedestrian Mr. Wheeler's car had struck was a "professional victim," a retired circus acrobat, who'd been in fourteen similar "accidents," and in every case, he had recovered completely within a week of receiving the insurance settlement.

professional bargainer

In retail, a customer who feels they are absolved, for whatever reason, from paying the full retail, or even sale price, of an item. They are ruthlessly aggressive, cutthroat, and Grade-A social bottomfeeders, of the lowest order. Often they will use every lie or excuse in the book, in order to garnish themselves a deal. They will claim a product is damaged, when it is not. They will claim to be family of staff, when they are not. Females will attempt to use sexual charm, while males prefer verbal aggression, to try and break down a salesperson. Easily spotted. Often found standing in the middle of the store, yelling at the top of their lungs, and making an ass of themselves.

"If that 'professional bargainer' makes a purchase from you, make sure you hit him up with the hidden 'PAIN IN MY ASS' tax. He has it coming to him!"

starbucks professional

Grifter/hustler who "offices" at a Starbucks posing as a business person complete with business cards displaying their first and middle names only with a job title (i.e. Estimator, etc.) and a cell number.
Favored expressions: "I can get back with you on that.", "I know I can save you money.", "Here's my card.", "Do you have a card?".

Turns out he was just another starbucks professional hustling or conning suckers in his "office".
