Well, Walmart obviously didn't care to defend those rights.

This is similar to much cooler con, which should work if you have phone skills.. call to for example Walmart or any bigger retailer, and look for those cellphone deals that gives you also the operator in the same package. They'll usually promote these with '1 dollar phone', but the program is the one that costs. Call them up.

David Floyd: Hi, this is Super John. I was in your store couple of days ago, and I was wondering about the phone deal, do you know who works there in the night shift?

Summerboy: Hmm.. Chris? .. Ricky...?

David: Chris sounds familiar, tell me what he looks like?

Summerboy: kind of homo

David: his last name?

Summerboy: Dork. Chris Dork?

David: yeah that's him! I remember now. When is he going to be on again?

Summerboy: tomorrow.

David: cool. I'll prolly call back tomorrow then. Ta-ta!

Then evil David calls to another branch, that is close by.

David: What's up, it's Chris Dork from Dorkcity in Dorkcounty?

Fat Lady: Nothing much, busy busy busy. What can I do for you, Chris?

David: Well, we've been selling this plan like hotcakes, we ran out of them cell phones. You guys still have them?

Fat Lady: Sure do. We've been selling them a lot too.

David: Ok, listen Lady, I just sold my customer the plan, and realized we've run out the phones. Can he come by and get one from you guys? Charge it 1 dollar, and I'll be in forever gratitude. The customer is already in our system.

Fat Lady: Sure Chris. Tell him to come by, what's his name?

David: His name is Evil David. I'll send him there, he's all set up, so he just needs the phone. OK thank you so much, I'll have sex with you later on..

Then David goes and buys his phone for 1 dollar. And since there is no plan programmed, he can actually get his own plan and save money on that one as well. Or if it's locked, well.. unlock it.

Have to agree with you here.

Funny, but totally unethical from a libertarian POV.

wtf pekka?

[Ãskallin]

Hahaha.. This was pretty funny . I cant understand why people are so worked up about this, just a case of survival of the fittest. Chris is a dumb@ss and therfore he lost. You got an iPod and everyone is happy.

I think people are just jealous cause they cant pull this stunt off

Good on ya mate...

@ Pekka's post.

[Arrian]

I don't think anybody here is particularly worked up. We're just calling it what it is.

Actually, iskallin's random, generalizing psycho-analysis is spot on for me. I've never been so ashamed in my life.

Lorizael, simple identity theft used as an authentication (like password) and using it to the maximum.. works man, it works. Not always, but in general, these kind of things do work, adn usually the victims never realize they were hustled in the first place.

Sometimes I get this feeling that Pekka practices "pouncing" in his tiny apartment all day. He crawls into a corner with camo paint on his face and a blackened knife between his teeth. Then, when his teddy bear on the sofa least suspects it, he strikes!

[Pekka]

I prefer attacking unsuspecting homeless people. I'll remedy the homelesness situation as well as unemployment.

[Victor Galis]

While I generally disapprove of fraud, I can't help but feel a little Schadenfreude.

I, uh, I just thought it was funny. Like, the things you said - they were comical. So I laughed.

You just pretend the teddy bear is a homeless person.
