Comment on Delivery Driver Scammed DoorDash Of More Than $2.5 Million

• EightBitBlood@lemmy.world ⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago

  Reddit had an AMA with a Bank Robber ten years ago that they’ve since deleted for corpo purity reasons 😂

  Here’s the big points from it:

  • Banks don’t care about losing amounts under 5k.
  • Security won’t stop you if you don’t have a visible weapon.
  • Worst they do is lock the door, so bring a hammer.
  • the goal is to get in, and get the teller to give you a couple grand asap, then leave under 10 minutes.
  • Guy did this to at least 5 different banks (all different companies) in one day, once a month, for several months.

  He eventually got caught because of the money he had, not because his face was on every security camera.

  He recommends not doing this, as do I, as it’s just not worth it.

  But just in case you wanted to know how it was done a decade ago, fuck Reddit, here’s the details they recently deleted.

    Reddit used to have an entire shoplifting subreddit that regularly made fun of its loss prevention reddit and the two subs often stole ideas from each other. There was obvious sexual tension between them

    Ofc it got banned even though it was technically a “roleplay” sub

      see, some days I’m happy that I didn’t grow up on the Internet and on IRC, and some days (today) I’m sad that I missed these bits of internet history. God I love this so much

  It is generally advisable to not get caught.
