This guy definitely qualifies for Stupid Criminal of the Day. Aside from the fact that those stolen phones have to be activated to be used, how in the hell do you think you aren't going to be caught when you have eight employees helping you steal that many phones? A former senior manager at Taiwan's technology giant Foxconn has been indicted for stealing and selling 5,700 iPhones in China to pocket around US$1.56 million (S$2.2 million), Taiwanese prosecutors said Friday. Foxconn is the world's largest contract electronics maker and assembles products for international brands such as Apple and Sony. It employs about one million workers at its factories across China.
