Could be but this one was about the real ones.

If anyone remembers, it also had featured a Miami cop who had gone over to the good side. He was a gypsie who was trying to stop their cons. He had a tremendous advantage as he knew all their scams.

BTW I am reasonably sure one of the Irish Travelers came by my Fathers house one day. I was outside and he asked if I wanted my driveway paved. He was driving a new high end 4wd pickup and was a very sharp looking guy. I was familiar with the group and of course told him no.

A few days later I noticed where they had conned some other people in the neighborhood.

Yup. They got my dad, twice, on the paving thing. You won't believe how much he paid for just a little paving.

Did it have a camper shell with locks on both the back and side windows? I have read on some websites about the travelers that these side locks are a characterisitic sign.
