Dano was bemoaning the lack of good stuff on the boards. Here is a true dumb crook story.The crooks are a couple, male and female, and probably druggies.They burglarize a house and steal a bunch of furs and a checkbook. They go to another town (mine) and buy a very expensive piece of jewelry and write a check for it with the stolen checkbook. Clerk is too greedy to make the sale to bother checking the check.Our heroes then go to another town and try to sell the ring to another jeweler. The jeweler tells them that the diamond, though large, has a visible flaw, and he offers them less than 10% of what they paid. Now that pittance would have been free money, but these NASA candidates were greedy too, so they go BACK to the store where they passed the bad check to begin with, and ask for a refund.By this time, the store is aware that the check was a forgery, so they stall the couple and call the cops. Cops come and arrest the pair, and impound their car, which is full of furs and stuff from the original burglary.Sometimes what looks like great police work is really the bad guy making it easy for us.
