There was a group of self proclaimed gypsies in my area. It was a large group with mostly the same last name. They travelled back and fourth between the Chicago 'burbs and Terre Haute Indiana.

After a few years they became notorious in the area for the sealcoating scam. This is where they would knock on your door and tell you they had sealcoating materials left over from a job down the street and they could give a great discount on your driveway. They would actually thin the sealcoating mixture to where it wouldn't last but a few days. The local police chased them from the area a couple years ago.

They all spoke a language they called "Rumley". I couldn't describe what language it was derived from.

Bingo. They tried to hit us up in a northern burb of Chicago - we happened to live pretty close to an exit off the Tri-State Tollway - easy getaway for people like this, wouldn't you say?!
