He he he.

I like smart crooks like those, they add some spice to your life :-)

In Norway some years ago, there was somebody who put up a fake wall in front of a night-safe deposit box, so that people who thought they delivered the money, actually put it into the fake deposit box on the fake wall! Brilliant! LOL! I don't remember precisely, but I think they got caught in the end though.. :-)

Hmm, I've heard that story before ... You sure it's not an urban legend?


Actually, I read it in a newspaper, along with some pictures of the actual deposit box...but it could still be an urban legend, newspapers pull a lot of dirty tricks to attract readers :-(
