If you plan on stealing a credit card.....

[Delislave]

B/G: I work in a well known pizza chain.

A very short and simple lesson:

If you plan on stealing a credit card

and ordering $80 dollars worth of pizza and various sides

Do not

UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES

get it delivered to your home address

as well as providing your home phone number and real name.

And no, placing the order on the Internet does not ensure that no-one can find you BECAUSE YOU HAD IT DELIVERED TO YOUR HOME

Idiots....


An easy job for the police I suppose.

Wow. The police must've praised you and almost given you guys awards for dropping something that into their laps, all tied up in such a neat shiny package of stupid. Stealing: They're doing it wrong.

Hmm, that could easily make it onto 'Worlds Stupidest Criminals'. Takes a special kind of person to be that out of it.

Mytical's onto something...consider submitting that story to some dumb criminal show.

Yeah. I can just hear the commentary from Tonya Harding, Todd Bridges, and Leif Garrett now.

I <3 that show.

OK, let me ask the stupid question here.

How'd you know the CC was stolen?

I want to know that too.

Well, for starters they ordered an insane amount of food with ridiculous toppings on every pizza that are very expensive/unusual around this neck of the woods (such as double cheese, double chicken, double fetta, double onion, that all costs $2 extra per topping). If it wasn't prepaid on the internet, we would have probably dismissed the order as a prank and called up the people who placed the order.

We were called up by the actual woman whose credit card it was, demanding to know what the charge was for. Well actually she already knew because she'd called the bank and they'd traced it back to us.

Then a follow up call from the bank as well.

Not heard from the police at all though.

A few more things to help you use a stolen card:

If it's one that has a photo on it, don't use it if you look nothing like the person you stole it from. Those pictures aren't particularly high-res, but I'm usually able to tell a white chick with blonde hair from a black guy with a shaved head.

Try taking a look at the name, and consider whether it's believable. If you're a skinny white boy, and the card says your name is Maria Martinez-Rodriguez... I might ask for some ID.

TSG Presents: World's Dumbest... is one of my favorite shows. I was thinking of watching one from the DVR tonight but I'm out of time...maybe tomorrow night. The original post would be a PERFECT story for that show. (I'm really not at all impressed with Tonya Harding, however...)

Or, when presented with the dilemma of having to provide your address for shipping your ill-gotten goods, you could simply refuse to provide it and yet insist the goods somehow get shipped to you anyway. When told that's not possible, keep insisting that they make it happen. Refuse to give up believing that you can have something shipped to you without providing your address.

That incident happened where Mr. Dips works and was the genesis of my second sig. line.

I wish they still had Gary Busey on that show, he was extra funny. :P

But yes. Seriously, stupid!

He's in league with this one guy on the show who stole a gold chain and cellphone and took pictures of himself.

The guy he stole it from got a new phone and transferred all the stuff from the first phone, and got the pictures to the cops.

Quote the cop...

"We don't have a dumb charge we can put on him at this time..."

You couldn't build a prison big enough to house the stupid.

Although, give them enough chances and they'd probably end up taking themselves/each other out a la 1000 Ways To Die.
