Just found this on a 'For Sale' board on a house I am selling

Should I be concerned?

Cheers

?

I would assume its just a 'tagger'

Looks like a pokemon ball to me!!

That's the internationally recognised symbol for the 'Floating Egg Pokers". They're harmless, unless you're a floating egg.

Its a gang symbol for a rival estate agent,

If it offers any comfort, I work for a company that puts up boards for estate agents (about 80,000 a month) and I've never seen one with that symbol on it

Lots of other (usually phallic) symbols though.

You might find it's a Pikey symbol! They use them to indicate if a property is worth a break-in, too risky, or nothing worth stealing etc.

It's Romanian for 'Squat available'

probably just a gypsy curse

Just an arial shot of a mexican golfer with an arrow through his sombrero..

^ lol

I'd go with possibly pikey symbol, Might be worth giving the police a bell and asking about that sort of thing. If nothing else it might shed some light on it.

I would say its a mark of some kind along the lines of
"when it be goes darkkkk, we bring back out caravan & dags, and we be stealing all ye coppa tube!"

interesting?

Do a Google search for "Burglars Chalk" and it will show you what symbols mean

I know there's thoughts of pikey symbols etc. but chances are it's just an oik with a marker pen - why would you tag a house for burglary when you could just send someone a rightmove link to the property and avoid leaving a tag to link yourself to a crime?

It is worth checking in with the local plod though, just to be sure.

It's the new Enviroment Agency initiative. After the floods this year they're marking all houses for sale with a "plimsoll line" showing where the water will come up to after the ice caps melt.

Like this one...

In 2009 in Tanbridge, Surrey, near East Grinstead, police warned about a similar set of codes – dubbing it the Da Pinchi Code.

joking aside it might be worth removing it with white sprit just incase

Ive only seen that once before I'd be worried Mark very worried.

Some jokers put it on to make you worry about it and its worked.

As its a house your selling, it probably means

"house for sale, so everything is packed, bring a large van and a few mates and in 30 mins you have cleared the place, as its all in boxes ready !"

Its your house , so take the sign down, I did when I sold my place, as they have to ask permission to put a sign up,

its not compulseray

If you've upset someone it's normally marked on the pavement, maybe they had a bad back and used the for sale sign?????? Lol.......

This would concern me, paranoia or not.

I would take the board down.

I've never allowed an EA board up on any of my previous homes, OK, so I am paranoid.

Just copy the symbol on to every other For Sale board in the area.......

to me that look like a symbol looks like a view finder / focus symbol on a SLR camera

is it a symbol to say there is CCTV in the area ?

to me it feels a little more than a kids prank !
