prompted me to search this out.

When he gets there, BIL fixes 'problem' and 'buyer' is off again. In the meantime, the buddy returned to BIL's house, crawled in thru the unlocked bathroom window, and stole back the cash. It was Sunday, the banks were closed, and they knew all the $$$ would be left at the house when BIL left to help the 'buyer'. They got away with a nice bike for free...

Wow, people suck!

Thing is, they can't be brilliant if they eventually get caught, right?

So, the most clever? We never hear of them being caught.

Thanks for the entertaining link, goes well with coffee.
