Did he really just leave his IP wide open? Or did they somehow manage to get through his seven proxies to find him?

I know I’m being paranoid. What I don’t know is if I’m being paranoid enough.

Reddit had an AMA with a Bank Robber ten years ago that they’ve since deleted for corpo purity reasons 😂

Here’s the big points from it:

• Banks don’t care about losing amounts under 5k.
• Security won’t stop you if you don’t have a visible weapon.
• Worst they do is lock the door, so bring a hammer.
• the goal is to get in, and get the teller to give you a couple grand asap, then leave under 10 minutes.
• Guy did this to at least 5 different banks (all different companies) in one day, once a month, for several months.

He eventually got caught because of the money he had, not because his face was on every security camera.

He recommends not doing this, as do I, as it’s just not worth it.

But just in case you wanted to know how it was done a decade ago, fuck Reddit, here’s the details they recently deleted.

Reddit used to have an entire shoplifting subreddit that regularly made fun of its loss prevention reddit and the two subs often stole ideas from each other. There was obvious sexual tension between them

Ofc it got banned even though it was technically a “roleplay” sub
