No I get that, but if they're just scrapping the aluminum then they wouldn't be in trouble for scamming the CV tax. Only way 9 tons of aluminum or glass is worth 10 mil is with a whole mess of cv fraud, but 178 tons of scrap aluminum and glass for 7 and a half mil? Sounds about right. Something is very weird with these numbers.
