The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", sykesix asked the members: "What do you do if you arrive early at movie besides go to the snack bar?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

But it seems really stupid to use a stolen credit card number (she still has her physical card) for an online transaction that will be shipped to YOUR address.

They don't ship it to your own address. They ship it to some local address and track it then porch-pirate it after delivery.

But it would seem to me that a report to the authorities could result in an arrest within hours, because that transaction should be traceable twice over.

I bet the credit card companies don't even report it to the cops unless the amount is very significant.
