Last week a box was delivered but when I came to get it someone had taken it. So I put out my game camera and some boxes full of rocks. The following pictures show 4 different dudes stealing the boxes. Some were during the middle of the night. These pics were taken off of videos of these guys but I do not know how to post a video on here. My plan now is to take a big old poop and put it in a box. Obviously I have had to move my deliveries to my home. What a bunch of thieves in our world today. Last edited by tlk; 06/26/22 02:21 PM. You can't fix stupid

A guy I know uses a tacticam camera,,,notifies him when it takes a pic. He would/does follow the perp,,,, after the perp parks,,, he flattens 4 tires and puts sugar in the gas tank.

Sniper John gumshoe Joined: Aug 2005 Posts: 20,928 North Texas	How about packing up some things with "Visible Theft Detection Powder" on them. You can probably get it on Amazon like everything else. Years ago I worked with two guys who were one upping each other with practical jokes. One of of them got some anti theft powder from a friend in the police dept and brushed it inside the rim of his buddies ball cap. It worked too. It left a purple ring across the guy's forehead that lasted for a week. So if you have some freebee ball caps laying around, it would be a good way to dispose of them. The powder reacts with bare skin and turns into a purple dye. Powder the inside of some cheep gloves for someone to steal. The front inside of a full face toboggin perhaps. Even though it is summer, they surely would try it on.

Sadly, that may be true. We had a shoplifter at the store filling a bag with random merchandise. He was a known homeless guy in the area. 4 police officers stopped him at the door. While one of the officers was talking to my wife, the other three let the thief go with a verbal warning. Which would have been ok, but they let him leave with our bag of stuff! Said there was nothing they could do because it was under a certain monetary value.

BTW, I think the payback on that was the guy with the purple forehead also got hold of some of that visible theft powder, got into his buddy's bag with spare cloths at work and brushed it on the inside of his buddies underwear.

But I think the punishment he gave was way worse and thats all I can say Hasn't caught anybody else since!
