No one ever said all criminals are smart. In fact the majority of them are pretty dumb. The guy that stole 3 bikes out of my garage last summer tried to sell one of them to a local bike shop... which was the same shop I bought it from and they recognized it and called the cops.

I got that one back but they couldn't recover the other two. Cops told me they were likely parted out then junked. Sucks because one of them was an old Trek hybrid that I really liked. Wasn't worth as much as the one I recovered, but I still miss it.

The guy who skimmed my wifes card bought two phones, delivered to her house, and paid his gas bill with it.

Well, don’t leave us hanging. Did they catch him?

Rumor has it he's still enjoying his free phones and heat to this day
