$37,000 Sweet Tooth…
Now THIS is what you call a sweet deal… or rather, it could have been.
A teen in Middletown, Ohio ordered more than $37,000 of candy online while charging the bill to his former high school. (I don’t think I’ve ever even seen $37,000 worth of candy in my life…)
The candy company, The Goodies Factory, got suspicious when the purchase order came in for thousands of lollipops and candy bars. Msn.com reports that detectives “contacted the school and [told the company to] send an empty box.”
The teen was arrested upon delivery - Yup…the teenager had the candy shipped to his home address. (duh…)
He’s now facing two counts of felony telecommunications fraud.
Rate this potential heist on a scale from 1 - 10. 10 being ‘Bond-worthy’ and 1 being..well..you know…terrible. What do you guys think?
