My question (and my little trickery scheme) is this...say I want an iPhone 4 and I need 25 referrals (thus 25 different people/credit card numbers)...whats stopping me from getting 25 pre-paid debit cards with like a dollar on each of them from Walmart and just acting like I'm 25 different people? I mean, how could they tell?

Fixed.

I remember one thing that I would steal all the time were shits from school...mainly the nice graphing calculators and the Fluke multimeter's they had...real nice shit, was selling each at like $75 all day...I guess they never caught on or didnt care one because they never protected them or locked them up...they just kept buying more...hmmm...

Besides that Ive stolen a bunch of shit...dont really feel guilty for any of it as its always been shit from multi-billion dollar stores and shit like Walmart and what not.

Ive never stolen anything from people personally...like friends and what not...cause karma is a bitch but karma dont care about Walmart thats basically stealing from you anyways with MASSIVE ass mark ups and shit...

Well, I did steal a iPhone 3GS 16GB from a friends friend at a party once...does that count???

You should take the fifth. You admit stealing from Walmart without remorse, and you admit stealing an iPhone from a friends party.

In my world, 1+1 still equals 2.

P.S.
...cause karma is a bitch

Epic lulz:
If i were the mods... i'd suspend your Stolen Blu-Ray DVD sale... considering your history of theft... Anandtech could be putting themselves in a legal liability by fostering the sale of stolen property.

If i were anyone on this site considering buying the items listed.. i'd be wary of possession of stolen property.

And like somebody mentioned earlier, he had no friends that were willing to pony up the $150 for bail. :(

It's the self ownage, not the guy.

You do realize people don't get banned around here for no reason, right? Even the mods surmised that something fishy was going on with him otherwise he would be on here defending himself. (or calling us fucktards again)

Don't hate the player...

Here's the deal, the OP is likely a sociopath, he feels no remorse over stealing, and he's likely been selling the stolen property on FS/FT here.

He also posted a cyberbegging thread (last week?) asking for "$50 so his GF could see a doctor" (deleted by the mods) He also had an active thread is FS/FT mentioning he was saving up to buy a car, and had a ton of DVD's listed, many still sealed...

Too many coincidences, because in life, unlike the movies, there are very few coincidences.

This thread was awesome, from first post to last. I just can't believe people are siding with this guy. It's like watching a skateboarder crash face first into a curb. It's perfectly ok to laugh at him and poke him with a stick.

Is it also OK to throw some gravel in front of the skateboarder to cause the crash?

I sure hope so...it's one of my favorite hobbies.

Yeah at least 3 cell phones in there!

How the fuck does someone have alllllllll that stuff and a) can't come up with $50 for a doctor and b) can't come up with $150? That logitech surround sound system he has is worth at least $200.


If he looks like a douche, and smells like a douche, prolly gonna be a good chance he is a douche.

ohh you missed the amazing thread where some idiot tried to claim he was getting ripped off on Ebay. he sold a (i think it was) a motherboard. but had hidden text on the auction that people found. he was scamming people and got pissed when he got scammed.

then got pissed that some here found it. it was a great thread.

Oh, that was glorious! his white text scammery discovered quite quickly by an ATers.
