Scam in which the mark is approached in public, typically in a strip mall or gas station parking lot. The version of the scam has different "stories" that go with it but the basic version is that guys work for some type of audio equipment company and have obtained by somebodys mistake an extra set of speakers that they need to sell for cash right away. They have phony invoices and warranties. The sticker on the speaker box will usually be between $2000-$3000. They will try to get $200-$500 for them. Of course when the mark buys them and takes them home, they are junk and sound worse than a clock radio, sometimes they damage the equipment they are plugged into. Commonly the brand name on the speaker is similar to a real high end speaker brand name, but not identical. Genesis seems to be a popular one, but their are others. The scam in so named because the perps usually are in a rented white van..
Ed started telling me about the great deal he got on speakers at the gas station, when I interrupted and asked if the brand was Genesis...and they he said... Ya, how did you know? White van scam dude.

a classic scam used by police officers to get probable cause for warrantless search and seizure and/or arrest.
First, they ask permission to search your property (for example, a car or backpack). You say no because you have rights. Then they bring a dog around to sniff your property. Regardless of what the dog does, they claim that the dog has detected drugs, explosives, or a body. At that point, you may be under arrest, and anything you have can be seized, and possibly never returned, under Civil Asset Forfeiture laws.

Dude: "Hey did you hear about how Ethel Hylton's life savings and insurance settlement were confiscated at an airport and never returned?"
Guy: "Bullshit."
Dude: "For real, it was a drug dog scam. Google that shit!"
Guy: "Damn, that's fucked up."
