Improved Shoplifting Volume 2 "Computer Shows" by Dr. Bushwacker Want a 21.6 modem but don't feel like buying one? Then do it the American way... STEAL IT! It makes it easier to steal from computer shows when you have an accomplice (even better, two of them). If you got two accomplices to help you, then get one of them to go and distract the salesman by asking him prices and technical questions while you pick up the item that you want. As the salesman is distracted, have accomplice number two walk behind you as you lower the item your looking at to your side as accomplice number two grabs it discreetly out of your hand from behind. Then wait around that table for a few seconds and if the salesman gives you a wierd look, kinda let him see that your hands are empty before you walk away. If you only have one accomplice, just wait till another customer distracts the salesman. And you just got yourself a new toy to play with! It is a good idea to steal a bag, or maybe buy a large, but cheap item so you can use the bag to hold your new item in. But be careful who sees you do it, because the computer shows around here have security dressed in casual clothing and walk around just like regular customers. Another way you can lift something is to pick it up and examine it, then casually place it back on another part of the table so that when you walk away, you can grab it without anyone seeing you. I got a modem in a fairly big box this way. But if your smart, don't put the item inside your jacket, there are more people watching you than you think. The key is just act natural. It is the best way to get away without getting caught.
