Stealing from a church

[jkim4007]

You know how catholic churches have those collection baskets going around? What you'd do is: put on a hoodie and sunglasses and enter a small church (not the huge cathedrals). Have a friend park his car by the entrance and tell him to leave his passenger door unlocked. take a seat at the very back at the aisle. when the collection basket comes your way (either the usher will pass it to you from the aisle or it'll be passed around through the rows), grab it and run. quick way to make 700-1000 bucks (that is if you go on a sunday). the priest will kindly say a prayer for you too

obviously make sure the license plate on the car isn't visible or switch them out/take them off/etc.

And before you say stealing from a church is wrong, I was brought up in a Catholic family and my parents were friends with some of the higher-ups in the archdiocese. these fuckers are pros at tax corruption. you're not hurting any individuals.

Here's the issue I see with it. It's going to be pretty obvious when you're stealing the collection plate. Nobody's gonna have any doubts, that is. What if you happen to have some crazy fit fucker decide to chase you down as you're running? Chances are you're no athlete, but what if HE is? And now he's got his pit bull sights set on some faggot who's taking a bunch of money from his church, eyes rolling back in his head, frothing at the mouth, and he wants YOUR blood. Can you outrun that guy? The guy with the fire of GOD under his ass? If so, then by all means steal money from a church.

Just case the crowd before you rip it off, that's the lesson here.

If you get caught the courts would look real down on this like stealing from a charity. Dumb idea.

Better places to steal from, those hardcore catholics will chase your ass. Chances are, there isn't that much money in there anyways.

Heard a scam from a mormon church involving taking DVD players etc. Will post details later.

Was about to post the same thing. Maybe throw some holy water down as you're making your escape to act as a godly oil slick?

lookup datura, read: scopolamine.

extract yourself, place in holy water.

be sure to be early for your sermon.

OP's gonna burn in hell... or at the stake... or both.

I'm not actually gonna do this (don't have any friends who are into this stuff). Just thought I'd post it here for other folks to try.

Fucking lol'd

but really that can be said for most crimes. Like swiping people's $300 phones on the bus and running. Stealing from stores and running. just don't earn money this way unless you are an above average runner.

Basically no reason for this to not work.. but while you're in the church I would pray before the basket comes around that you aren't the first to try it. Some guy in the back row who looks like a drug addict is pretty suspicious.

Why don't you just observe where the guy takes the money? Then go back later that day and steal it discretely? Chances are he doesn't take it straight to the bank. Worst case scenario he puts it in a lockbox in the back somewhere, which shouldn't be hard to force open.

I've never been to church though so I don't know how this shit actually works. Hell maybe he does take it straight to the bank. Just a thought

Lol these thieves take it straight home. Fuck churches.

Find one with DVD players, TVs, other such items. Not sure where to take those items. CL and pawn shop both be risky.

I've done various IT work for churches, you'd be surprised how many have top notch computers, projectors, hell one had its own server for its website. Most churches will have alarms - slip away during a function and swipe a projector.
