    Duo steals hundreds of iPhones, sells them all to one person

    Duo steals hundreds of iPhones, sells them all to one person Posted by: admin in Gaming Duo steals hundreds of iPhones, sells them all to one person Filed under: Cellphones Apple’s no stranger to having its wares ganked (a lot), but this one really has us scratching our noggins some kind of fierce. Apparently a couple of meddlesome 20-somethings working at a Salem, New Hampshire Apple store managed to scoot away with somewhere between 330 and 700 iPhones. After somehow stuffing that many handsets into a panel van / pickup truck / privately owned C-130, they seemingly sweet talked a single high-roller into snatching up their entire stash for upwards of $138,000 — which could be a bargain (or not) depending on the actual quantity included in the deal, internal capacity, etc. Minutiae aside, both individuals are currently residing under the strong arm of the law (surveillance cameras are hard to dodge), but curiously, nothing is mentioned about the buyer who didn’t find spending over a hundred large with a couple of average joes (who just happened to have an inordinately large amount of iPhones for sale) the least bit odd.

    When Apple Store employees go rotten (and to jail)

    A couple of brilliant New Hampshire Apple Store employees thought it would be a good idea to whisk away some $150,000 worth of iPhones from their Apple store in an attempt to score some extra dough (presumably to purchase 83 MacBook Airs). What would you do with $150,000 in stolen iPhones? I'd probably go to a shady foreign government, maybe in Latin America? These guys went to...some dude...who bought them all. As what often happens when people make such audacious moves against their own employers, these two iPhone thieves are both in custody and facing felony grand theft charges. Geniuses, my foot. As to what happened to the high roller who purchased all the phones, we're not quite sure yet, but he'll surely have some explaining to do.
