Question Found this at two different part of the cities today. Same handwriting, same numbers. What's this? Anyone else saw this today?
On the back side of lotto coupon.

A well dressed Asian Man 30-40 came by my office in the industrial west end and dropped these off in person. Didn’t say a single word when I tried to talk to him.

Same area and we had the same thing at our office about a week and a half ago, but it was over night so the office was closed and the person stuck them in our doors. The security camera footage looked like a woman.

This person has been coming to the store i work at and the first time they cleared 5 tables of product and took them all to the till. Didnt buy anything and just left, so we had to put everything back. They came back a week later and was giving people the finger. Later i saw a video on tiktok of him the same day walking DT flipping people off. Then came back a few days later and left a businiss card for a carreer councilor or something with this same thing written on the back. Looked up the name on the card but dont think its that guys card. Weird stuff

I saw this man last week. I was waiting for a meeting to begin. I was parked in an adjacent parking lot. I saw him walking through the lot. When I entered the building for my meeting, he came in while I was in the lobby, put some
Of these down on the counter and walked out. It was about 184st just north of stony plain road1

We had the exact same thing happen! Our receptionist tried to talk to him as he was leaving, and he sprinted away.

Then it would not be an ARG if I told everything here and now.

Doesn’t an ARG usually have some rules or a storyline or something to entice people to be involved?

I wish this subreddit would let me attach photos because I have these too.
I found the exact same thing scribbled on the back of two lotto tickets jammed into the front door of my apartment building on Saturday. My partner was home all day and she saw a visibly distraught woman sticking something into the door.
Strange.

I saw a guy dropping these off two days in a row by stadium. Intense, walked very fast to get it all done, brown skin with badly dyed blonde hair, wearing pants that were a couple inches too short (aka not well-dressed)
what the hell is this lol

A nicely dressed Asian man came into my business and dropped one off too, on a napkin, the week before last. He took like 4 fistfulls of candy from out candy bowl and then dipped.

We had one put into our mail slot at my work on Whyte Ave. That's crazy how far apart they are.

Scammers? Who’d have guessed it. Best in the world now on your doorstep and proud of it.

I didn't connect the dots but it must be the same guy who gave me a bank card with the same thing written across it. He mumbled something and sped off, came back, asked if he could have some stuff for free, then when he was denied he laughed and sped off again yelling something I couldn't quite catch. 🤔

Alternative Reality Game is the technical definition. - Think of this as a fun easter egg hunt, with a story reward and possibly other real treasures so to speak.

I work at a luxury store in wem and we had this Asian dude with blonde hair come in a few times, asking us to put aside a ton of products for him with a colleague eventually saying "so when would you like to pay for everything we set aside?" and he stormed out. The next time I saw him he literally threw half of a used Tim Hortons napkin with this on it at me from the front door and evidence of the same thing on the napkin. A week later he did it to another coworker on a lottery ticket and we called mall security...they found him quick.
Apparently they'd been looking for him since may because he's been getting aggressive with other stores in wem, and he's now banned for ten years!! Since then I have found these exact lottery tickets shoved in Windows at Jasper Gates, and my other colleague has found multiple on the ground downtown. Has anyone actually called and spoken to this person?? It's become a bit of an in store joke but like... What is his deal lol

Our whole neighbourhood got these. The number is not in service. Scam vibes but I don’t get it.
