Thieves in Pottstown, Vineland get elaborate

Some big-dreaming thieves involved in separate incidents in Vineland and Pottstown recently got a little ambitious with their crimes.

 

Two thieves in Pottstown have been charged with setting their sights on the big haul. They stole steaks and caviar from a local supermarket. One of the involved parties previous stole $45,000 worth of metal.

In Vineland, scammers were unsuccessful in convincing a woman she’d won a prize. Probably because the award was too good to be true.  The Vineland resident was pretty sure she hadn’t won $750,000 and a new Mercedes, and local police and the Department of Homeland Security confirmed she hadn’t. Efforts to trace the phone scammer connected authorities to an addiction recovery center in New York.

Well at least we’re producing high-aspiring criminals these days.
