Am I getting this wrong or are you cheering for them not to get caught?
haha, i'm not exactly an advocate for criminal behavior but i definitely have a certain respect for criminals who are good at what they do (and don't get caught). i come from a place and ethic where street smarts are important and as a rule you don't talk to police. so to me, someone who gives away thousands in cash for absolutely nothing in return is just a gullible pigeon. idiots like that are bound to be parted from their money one way or another.
people shouldn't run businesses if they don't understand basic human rationality. what these atm operators did is blindly trust and throw free money at literally any random person off the street. such stupidity almost demands they be stolen from!
