Don't Steal Credit Cards Then Buy PS3 Games

A California man has been sentenced to five years prison after robbing a number of women of their credit cards, which he then promptly used to buy PlayStation 3 games.

In January 2008 the man, Rodelio Cataroja, Jr., stole four women's purses over the course of two weeks, and in four separate transactions at a Target store in Vista, California bought a number of PlayStation 3 games. He also bought televisions, mobile phones and an iPod.

Going to the same store four times to buy the same stuff is enough to arouse the suspicions of even a department store security guard, hence his subsequent arrest.
