Comment on Mother and daughter abducted from shopping centre carpark, forced to buy laptops
S_H_K@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 month agoSo insane at first I thought it was an onion article. Seems like an isolated event why someone would require laptops? A cyber security nutjob?

Buy with stolen credit cards, easy to flip on gumtree. The urgency is probably due to the cards getting cancelled at any time (or fraud protection kicking in)

The woman said that she helped him rob her, so I assume that where her cards.
This story is so odd, that I would be disappointed it is was just about acquiring laptops to resale them later.
