Trio scores big in Wal-Mart scam then go to jail

Three men from Georgia, Levar Thornton, 29, Michael Cunningham, 19, and Tyrell Myers, 18, have been arrested for ripping off 11 Wal-Marts. The trio would buy Xbox 360 games. Then they would carefully open them and replace the original contents with blank disks. After resealing the games, the group returned the fakes to Wal-Mart. Finally, they sold the pilfered games on eBay.

They returned 200 phony games to the discount retailer and were found by police to have 400 shipping receipts. Their estimated take in the scam – $10,000. So they got to try out all the latest 360 games for free and make lots of cash. I’m sure prison will temper their video enthusiasm.
