There must be a reason people decide to steal stuff. It must have something to do with not being smart enough to get a regular job. No offense, but I’m about to back those words with some solid proof. This thieves’ story comes all the way from Mexico! The thieves entered a Telefonica Movistar store and stole only replica phones which are basically worth nothing. In fact, these “smart” thieves have overlooked the real phones and the more important real cash which were located in a different part of the shop.

Well now we heard them all folks! The moral of the story, don’t steal if you’re not up to the challenge. As a matter of fact, don’t steal at all!
