I was in an Apple Store for a Genius Bar appointment when these two guys with hoodies and COVID masks walked in and started pulling phones off the displays and stuffing them into backpacks.
It took less than a minute and then they ran off. The security guard just stood to the side and recorded a video. Once they were gone, everyone just went back to what they were doing, like nothing had happened.
Afterward, I asked the Genius Bar guy if that happened often. He said the two guys hadn't gotten much because they hadn't refilled the display from a guy coming in and stealing all the phones literally the day before!
The phones were tracked and the cops eventually caught the two dudes as well as the other solo guy.
It's really the fsct they are stealing GPS tracked devices that make it easy to not give a fuck. They're gonna get caught without effort. No point in wasting your energy at that point.
If it were me, I'd come in with a copper box to put the phones in. 😌
I read somewhere it runs custom software so it's not like it's usable tech. Best if you can fence it quickly to someone greedy for low price it'll serve them right for buying obviously stolen goods.
