They got an innocent guy first, though. I wonder how much he was compensated.

"There's a sucker born every minute", as the saying goes. Con artists would starve without an inexhaustible supply of retards to scam. Dr. Begbootae of Nigeria tried it with me about ten years ago, wanting to make me a millionaire in return for helping him move his "vast millions" to America, and all I had to do was give him my bank account and bank routing numbers. It takes a special kinda stupid to fall for that.

Aside of the legal concerns and collateral damage, it would be great to punish porch pirates with actual bombs instead of glitter bombs.
