A friend told me a story about a couple of con men working a scam at the temporarily closed Montebello DMV. Apparently they made some shirts that said "DMV" on the front and stood outside the building posing as driving test administrators. Although the facility was closed, people who didn't know better were lining up outside to pay $20 to drive around the block a few times with the fake instructors, who then gave them a certificate and told them to come back in six weeks for their license. This went on for over two weeks before they were recently arrested.
